Hopeful Planet

Those displaced by climate events often lack protections due to the absence of global infrastructure granting them asylum or refugee status. Yet, communities worldwide are rising to this challenge, fostering change and resilience to create a Hopeful Planet.

Peace Artisans

Global challenges and instability are undermining peace, leaving forcibly displaced people facing incredible hardships and neglect. Yet, through compassion, solidarity, and welcome, JRS brings hope by accompanying those in the most forgotten contexts.

Supporting Education for Refugees

In 2015, JRS launched the Global Education Initiative, an ambitious international campaign to expand our education programmes to serve 250,000 refugees worldwide by 2020. Dr. Mireille Twayigira, JRS Refugee Education Advocate, worked with us to promote awareness about the reality of young students growing up in refugee camps.
