Honoured to join fellow refugee leaders, advocates, partners, and allies at the Canadian High Commission in Kenya to commemorate World Refugee Day 2026.

It was inspiring to stand alongside organizations and individuals committed to advancing protection, inclusion, and human rights for all refugees, including LGBTQI+ refugees.

As the Executive Director of Joyful Hope Resource Platform Center (JHRPC), I remain committed to advocating for safe spaces, equal opportunities, and lasting solutions that empower refugees to thrive.

A heartfelt thank you to the Canadian High Commission, ORAM, and all partners for creating a platform that celebrates diversity, solidarity, and the strength of refugee communities.

Happy World Refugee Day!
