UNHCR provides shelter, food, water, medical care and other life-saving assistance to refugees around the world. The dream of most refugees is to return home. When possible, UNHCR helps refugees make this dream a reality. When refugees can’t go back home, we work to find opportunities for them to rebuild their lives in another country. Since its formation by the United Nations General Assembly in 1950, UNHCR has helped millions of refugees restart their lives and has twice received the Nobel Peace Prize. Today, UNHCR’s committed staff of 10,828 work in 130 countries—saving and protecting lives, and building a better future for 67 million displaced people around the world. Read more
