A place to call home is a right. Yet so many in the world don't have this precious space to rebuild their lives after tragedy has struck. Shelter is so much more than walls and a roof. It is often the foundation to reclaiming hope for a future that was taken away. #Shelterfirst

When crisis forces a family to flee their home, their first need is simple: a safe place to stay with dignity. IOM supports the journey from emergency shelter to longer-term housing. Shelter is the first step to recovery. #ShelterFirst

💧When water and climate change affect livelihoods, migration becomes part of the story. At the 4th Conference on the Int'l Decade for Action “Water for Sustainable Development" in Tajikistan, IOM highlighted how climate & water challenges are driving mobility across the region.
