Through education and capacity-building programs, we help refugees advocate for their own rights and push for policies that provide equal treatment and support.

Together, we can break down the barriers of discrimination and create a world where refugees can live in peace, free from fear and prejudice.

URR

Unity Rainbow for Refugees (URR) is an independent, community-based organization founded in 2016 by a dedicated group of young people living in Rwanda who were displaced from their home countries due to political and social challenges.
The organization was established in response to the unique difficulties faced by marginalized and vulnerable refugee communities, aiming to promote inclusion, protection, and equal opportunities for all.


Mission

The mission of URR is to eradicate stigma and discrimination against refugees—particularly those from vulnerable and marginalized groups—by promoting peaceful coexistence, education, advocacy, capacity building, and socio-economic empowerment initiatives that ensure the well-being and good health of all refugees.

Vision

URR envisions a world through which all refugees live irrespective of socio-cultural and economic background of sexual orientation. Gender identity, and expression.
