Refugees

Around the world, more than 84 million people have been forcibly displaced. And that's only the number from last time it was counted. In the meantime, the war in Ukraine has unleashed another refugee crisis on top of the devastating ongoing crisis around the world. So how can we offer a warm home to those who were forced to flee theirs? What is the power of home? And how can we avoid this becoming the humanitarian issue of the decade? Through the lens of Global Goal 16, but touching on so many of the others, Gail and Loyiso hear powerful stories from around the world.
