A joint brief on the situation for unaccompanied and separated children in Bulgaria, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Serbia and Croatia

World leaders working toward "equality for all" won’t get there if refugees are missing from their plans for meeting the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, or SDGs. A new IRC report explains why.

Since Turkey opened its borders, allowing refugees to reach Europe, it has been reported that thousands have attempted to cross into neighboring Greece.

Migration has been at the top of the European political agenda since 2015 following a spike in people, including refugees and asylum seekers, arriving to southern European countries by sea. Today, European Union (EU) leaders remain constrained by internal political divisions over how to manage arrivals to Europe. The resulting shortcomings in the European policy response have been seized upon by populist movements across Europe as evidence that migration is out of control, in turn fueling anti-immigrant sentiments.

The IRC and Sesame Workshop are working together to give millions of refugee children the educational support they need to learn, grow and thrive. We are honored to be one of eight semi-finalists in the MacArthur Foundation's “100&Change” grant competition.
