Refugees have talents. Refugees have passions. Refugees need to provide for their families. Refugees want to contribute to the communities that welcomed them. We know the solutions to empower and lift up refugees. We need you to help make them happen. #WithRefugees

FACT: The vast majority of refugees are hosted in low- and middle-income countries that together produce less than 20% of the world’s income. The responsibility needs to be shared more equally.

In many European countries, including Sweden, there's a severe labor shortage. How do we tap into the potential of refugees and migrants, engaging companies and the private sector to step up? #FNiAlmedalen #Almedalen2024
