Dear fellow refugees, here's how I found resilience

Losing family and home in a single night, one child became one of the 108 million forcibly displaced people worldwide. She describes how small acts of kindness, bridges of understanding, and access to education helped her rebuild a sense of belonging. Her journey reveals that anyone can become a refugee, and that resilience grows when communities choose compassion over fear. True sanctuary is created together, not found alone.
