World Refugee Day is celebrated every year on 20 June to celebrate the world's strength and courage of people who have been forced to flee their home country to escape conflict or persecution.

The World Health Organization (WHO) joins UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, and partners in observing World Refugee Day 2024.  

 This year's theme, "Solidarity with Refugees", WHO emphasizes the importance of building inclusive health systems and ensuring equitable care for refugees worldwide.
