This supporter event will feature a panel of speakers including:
Indrika Ratwatte, UNHCR Director of the Bureau for Asia and the Pacific, who was recently on mission in Afghanistan with the High Commissioner Filippo Grandi Ben Quilty, Australian artist and human rights advocate, who led a $6m fundraising and media campaign to support Australia for UNHCR’s Afghanistan Appeal Babar Baloch, Senior Communications Officer for UNHCR, who is currently on emergency mission in Pakistan Mariam Veiszadeh, Afghan-born Australian lawyer, Executive Director of Diversity Council Australia and award-winning human rights advocate
The needs in Afghanistan remain enormous, with half the population requiring humanitarian assistance. This event is a unique opportunity to hear about the situation on the ground and how UNHCR is continuing to support the 3.5 million displaced, many of whom are women and children. This event is part of our regular online Frontline Club program, which brings together our supporters to hear from humanitarian workers, refugees and experts sharing their insights about current refugee and humanitarian situations. I look forward to seeing you there. Yours sincerely, Naomi Steer National Director
