Paris, France | June 20, 2025 – On this World Refugee Day, JusticeMakers Bangladesh in France (JMBF)reaffirms its unwavering commitment to defending the rights, dignity, and humanity of refugees worldwide. As a refugee-led organization based in France, our voice emerges not from theory but from lived experience—shaped by resilience, resistance, and the relentless struggle for justice.
Today, a growing climate of fear and hostility surrounds refugees. In France and across Europe, those seeking safety are too often met not with solidarity, but with suspicion. Refugees face legal uncertainty, institutional neglect, racial discrimination, and social exclusion. Instead of protection, we encounter persecution. Instead of being heard, we are silenced.
