ARDD Highlights Civil Documentation as a Lifeline for Refugees in Jordan on World Refugee Day 2026
Without legal identity, access to rights and protection remains at risk. On World Refugee Day, ARDD highlighted the importance of civil documentation in safeguarding refugee rights and preventing statelessness, drawing on lessons from the Sudanese refugee experience in Jordan, including the correction of more than 100 birth certificates for Sudanese refugee children. @IDiplomat

On behalf of ID I was honoured to arrange with @Fawziakoofi77 a briefing by democratic voices of #Afghanistan at the House of Lords. This was in the margins of @WomenForAfg conference in London. Critical that we listen to these Afghan-led solutions ‘towards trust & consensus’.

Representatives of #Afghanistan’s democratic opposition briefing the #Belgian Senate. Important access in European capitals for these voices in presenting the alternative to the Taliban.

Important decision by the @Europarl_EN Del on #Afghanistan to host the democratic opposition to the Taliban. Proud that @IDiplomat could do our part to make this happen. Humbled by the strength & determination of those who continue to resist the Taliban & demand a better future.

Powerful speech by @Fawziakoofi77 at the @Europarl_EN urging stronger international pressure on the Taliban, accountability, recognition of #GenderApartheid and support for the democratic alternative. “It’s time for us to get what the people of #Afghanistan deserve”.

It is with great saddest to hear the passing of President Ali Salem al-Beidh. I know a person revered by all in South Arabia and an eternal champion of the Southern cause. All of us at @IDiplomat send our deepest condolences to his family. May the President rest in peace.

Over 300 civil society reps, union leaders and activists met in #Aden today and reinforced calls for independence. These voices can no longer be ignored. #SouthArabia.
Today, RLOs from our delegation joined the #GRF Progress Review side event hosted by @UNHCR, “Shaping the Future: Making Localization Work”
Localization isn’t just a principle—it’s a pathway to refugee leadership. 🧵#RefugeeLeadership #Localization
In her keynote, Vivian Oyella, Country Officer, Uganda, said:
💬 “Freedom, happiness and a healthy mind are the centers to self-reliance—for refugees and for communities at large.”
Powerful words to guide our work. #GRFProgressReview #Localization
