The theme for World Refugee Day in 2021 is “together we heal, learn and shine”. We were privileged to host African social innovators from #SouthSudan, #Congo, #Ghana, and #Nigeria who are contributing to their communities through different social projects. The event highlighted their work and was focused on lessons that can be derived from their unique journeys and how we can collectively move, as a continent, past the aid dependency especially in the refugee context.
