Refuge Network International

Description

Refuge Network International is a non-profit humanitarian organisation whose mission is to fight against social injustices, empower the marginalized, and alleviate human suffering principally through the promotion of Economic and Social Rights (ESR) in pragmatic and innovative ways.

We work with the homeless, victims of human trafficking, refugees, individuals living in abject poverty, and other marginalized groups.

The current pandemic has exacerbated the misery of the global poor. It has also exposed the fragility of the social protection systems in many communities. Millions of disadvantaged poor people and marginalised homeless people are facing a difficult and uncertain future. As a humanitarian organisation, we are receiving unprecedented requests for assistance. We can see the suffering and can feel the urgency.

Fundamental rights to food, clean water, housing, health, and an adequate standard of living are all guaranteed in international law.
