World Refugee Day 2026

Join the diocesan Migration Ministry Team in celebrating World Refugee Day, the international day designated by the United Nations to honor refugees throughout the world who fled their home nations because of war, hunger, climate change, and persecution due to a person’s religion, race, political views, or sexual orientation. World Refugee Day was established on June 20, 2001, to define the term ‘refugee’ and to set legal protection, rights, and assistance for refugees.
