Info
UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, is a global organisation dedicated to saving lives, protecting rights and building a better future for people forced to flee their homes because of conflict and persecution. We lead international action to protect refugees, forcibly displaced communities and stateless people. We deliver life-saving assistance, help safeguard fundamental human rights, and develop solutions that ensure people have a safe place called home where they can build a better future. We also work to ensure that stateless people are granted a nationality. We work in over 130 countries, using our expertise to protect and care for millions. UNHCR’s greatest asset is our workforce. We work with passionate, talented and creative individuals who want to use their skills for good. Thanks to people like you, we can develop solutions that enable people who have been forced to flee to restart their lives and build better futures.

Sport can empower and unite individuals and communities, contributing to peace, healing, development and growth. This is why sport is so important to UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency’s work. We are delighted to accept the Fair Play for Peace Award from the European Fair Play Movement in recognition of the role that sport can play in improving refugees' lives.
I’m delighted to be in Brussels with the Deputy High Commissioner Kelly T. Clements as UNHCR receives the Fair Play for Peace Award for improving refugees’ lives through sport. We’re grateful to the European Fair Play Movement for recognizing the critical role sport plays in providing hope and opportunities to refugees across the world – from urban settings to remote camps. Sport’s ability to heal and unite is transformative, especially for people forced to flee. Let’s continue to harness its power!
