@ReframeNetwork Our refugee communities have so many needs. By nature, new RLOs tend to try to do so much with little or even no resources. Funding a specific focus is one of the ways RLOs will make a meaningful impact.

@ReframeNetwork Some RLOs are becoming creative and taking their program participants/beneficiaries videos and sharing them with their audiences.

@ReframeNetwork Maintaining an active online presence through website and social media is also an effective way of story telling. Periodic updates (newsletters) to key stakeholders such as donors is another way of communicating impact.

@ReframeNetwork The world is seeing the work of RLOs. Looking back 10 years ago, there has been progress. However, more work is needed for RLOs to be more visible to the world.

Glad to have been part of the refugee leaders advocating for immigration reform in Washington DC this week!
National Advocacy Days are kicking off with a day-long session with nearly 100 refugee and asylee participants for a leadership training.

The story is told by the victor regardless of how it’s told.
Many UNHCR organizations are talking about "the genocide against the Tutsi." It would be much more accurate to say "predominantly but not exclusively against the Tutsi", given the number of Hutu and Twa who were also killed.
