Families escaping gang violence and persecution in Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador have undertaken a dangerous journey to seek safety in the United States. Central Americans have the right to request asylum in the U.S. without being criminalised or separated from their children.

Myanmar has endured a protracted conflict that has displaced millions and accelerated the country’s growing humanitarian crisis. The International Rescue Committee is on the ground in Myanmar, providing vital, long-standing support.

Nearly 1 million Rohingya have fled violence in Myanmar's Rakhine State to Cox’s Bazar, a district in Bangladesh. The IRC is responding with health care, protection for vulnerable women and children, and emergency support for the refugees.

Each day, families hope to cross the border from Mexico to the United States in search of safety. Staying is not a safe option – and the IRC is supporting programs in Mexican border towns to respond.
