A United Nations General Assembly campaign to enhance refugee resettlement with a dedicated mechanism — allowing refugees to articulate their displacement and report instances of abuse.
Universal Justice for All is a UNGA resolution campaign led by refugees to strengthen the United Nations Resettlement Program. We advocate for a dedicated mechanism that gives displaced populations a real voice — one that crosses political borders and addresses systemic impunity.
Our approach combines rigorous legal strategy with survivor-centered advocacy, targeting the accountability gaps that leave millions without recourse. We believe justice is not a privilege reserved for those who remain inside their borders.
