Save the Children commemorates World Refugee Day on the 20th of June by sharing success story for one of the refugees who had a lot of challenges but were able to face them. Nermine* is #NotJustARefugee, through Save the Children’s interventions and activities, she was able to start a new beginning in Egypt.

To commemorate six years of the Syria crisis, Save the Children organised a workshop for youth in Greater Cairo, entitled “6 years of story-telling”.

Farouk* is a 16 year who is no longer at school. He lives in Beheira Governorate; which is one of the locations in Egypt where there is a large number of young people at risk of unsafe migration. He worked in several jobs and he has a passion to work as a plumber. He is now participating in one of Save the Children’s programs targeting vulnerable children at risk of taking the deadly journey to Europe by boat. Farouk comes from a poor family and always had a dream of traveling to Europe.

World Humanitarian Day is an annual reminder of the importance of humanitarian work globally. This year Save the Children commemorates the day by sharing special memories from our inspiring aid workers.
