Refugee Week 2025
The theme for Refugee Week 2025 is “Community as a Superpower,” celebrating the incredible everyday. Ordinary and extraordinary. Simple acts of shared generosity. Kindness multiplied to become an unstoppable force!
“We can begin the process of making community wherever we are. We can begin by sharing a smile, a warm greeting, a bit of conversation; by doing a kind deed or by acknowledging kindness offered to us.”- Bell Hooks
Communities can bring people together. Bridging divides and offering support. Spaces of resilience and places for healing.
It’s amazing what we can do when we move together towards a shared goal. So let’s redefine and rediscover our collective power to shape hopeful futures and begin by practicing, celebrating and rehearsing it every day.
Support Refugee Week, 16–22 June 2025, and together let’s unleash the superpower of community.
