World Refugee Day 2026 - Sharing stories and raise awareness about rare cancers in displaced communities 🎗️. World Refugee Day (June 20) is a day to honor the resilience, courage, and lived experiences of refugees&mdash;people who have been forced to leave home and rebuild life in new places. Refugees are not a single story. We carry grief and survival, culture and memory, loss and possibility. And we deserve safety, dignity, community, and joy&mdash;especially those of us navigating displacement alongside anti-Blackness, transphobia, homophobia, and racism. This World Refugee Day, RARICAnow is organizing a community gathering to honor our people through speakers, Cultural food, connection, and community care. We are creating space to witness our stories, celebrate our strength, and remind each other: we are still here&mdash;and we belong. Come as you are. Come to be held. Come to honor queer refugees in our community. By registering, you help RARICANOW highlight real experiences, strengthen support networks, and expand access to reliable education and advocacy.
