The International Rescue Committee and YouTube have partnered to show that every person who has fled war or persecution is much #MoreThanARefugee.

On World Refugee Day, the IRC and our partners are taking action to bring hope and humanity to a world that is being torn apart. We ask you to join us.

This World Refugee Day, we’re proud to honor the refugees who are essential to making the world a better, safer place for us all.

War and persecution are increasingly affecting families all over the world, yet the U.S. is admitting the lowest number of refugees in the history of our refugee resettlement program. Refugees can no longer wait for resettlement – they need it now.

The International Rescue Committee is proud to partner with the makers of The Zookeeper's Wife, an extraordinary story of a family who risked their lives to save hundreds of innocent people during the Holocaust. We hope the film will inspire you to take action as the world faces its worst refugee crisis since World War II.
