Official account of the UN Refugee Agency in Pakistan. UNHCR Pakistan is working to support and find solutions for Afghan refugees.
- It's because of war. It's because of violence. It's because of persecution. It’s a heartbreaking decision that 41.6 million people have made to flee across borders to find safety. #GlobalTrends
- On Denmark’s Constitution Day, we recognize Denmark’s longstanding commitment to refugees & displaced people. As Afghan refugees in🇵🇰 face growing challenges Denmark’s support provides protection & assistance to those forced to flee. Thank you for your partnership & solidarity.
- Given the chance, refugees contribute and inspire. Meet a young Afghan refugee using digital skills to build a career as a food vlogger in Peshawar. 🎥🍲 Thanks to 🇩🇰 🇪🇺 @MBRInitiatives and 🇳🇱 for supporting opportunities for @Refugees & host communities in Pakistan.
00:00 - یو این ایچ سی آر پاکستان کی جانب سے آپ سب کو دلی عید مبارک۔ 🌙✨ دعا ہے کہ یہ بابرکت موقع ہمیں امن، ہمدردی اور جنگ، تنازعات اور ظلم و ستم سے متاثرہ خاندانوں کے ساتھ یکجہتی کی اہمیت یاد دلائے۔
- The UNHCR Pakistan team extends warm Eid wishes to everyone celebrating. 🌙✨ May this special occasion remind us of the importance of peace, compassion, and solidarity with families affected by war, conflict, and persecution.

A reminder: refugees didn’t choose to be refugees. But we can choose to have empathy.

When you're forced to flee, knowing where to turn for help can change everything. With support from the EU, @Refugees' helpline provides refugees with a trusted connection to essential services and life-saving information. Helping people find their way in times of crisis.
- “The helpline is often the first place refugees turn to for help.” UNHCR helpline agent Sania Orakzai says the service provides safe & reliable support when refugees need it most. On #EUDay, 🙏thank you 🇪🇺 for standing #WithRefugees in Pakistan & supporting this vital service.
- A big congratulations to @PeshawarZalmi on the well-deserved win! Beyond the win on the field, your continued partnership with UNHCR and commitment to supporting @Refugees is truly inspiring. #HBLPSL11 #YellowStrom @UNHCRAsia @UNinPak @MinistrySafron @CCAR_Islamabad
