MORE ON OUR WORK...

​The WEA Refugee Task Force…
  • Listens to and engages with refugees on the ground through local churches and agencies as well as on the national and regional level.
  • Advocates to countries around the world to welcome and care for refugees, especially giving priority to the most affected and marginalized religious minorities like those of the Christian faith.
  • Facilitates and coordinates the engagement of WEA and evangelical partners in advocating for refugee’s human rights at the United Nations.
  • Raises awareness of the conditions of marginalized religious minorities, religious liberty concerns of refugees, and the security and wellbeing of the vulnerable communities who are in danger of being extinct: including the Yazidi and Christian communities.
  • Facilitates the distribution of resources and hosting of workshops for local churches to respond and engage with refugees at grassroots level
The Refugee Highway Partnership…
  • Hosts regular global and regional roundtables bringing interested churches, agencies and individuals together to learn from one another, to network together, to share resources, and to mutually encourage each other.
  • Shares resources and training opportunities intended to help churches, agencies and individuals more effectively welcome and assist refugees.
  • Identifies and offers a platform for Focus Groups to bring churches, agencies and individuals together around specific needs and challenges.

Together

The WEA Refugee Task Force and RHP work closely together as we advocate on behalf of refugees and serve the body of Christ by helping connect and equip her to welcome and assist refugees. An important joint effort includes the promotion of World Refugee Sunday.
