⚽️ As the World Cup comes to an end, one thing is clear: the world’s biggest tournament wouldn’t be the same without migration. The World Cup celebrates talent, teamwork, and national pride, but it also celebrates something bigger: people whose journeys span countries, cultures, and generations.

The World Cup may be ending, but the work of welcome continues!
