My further outreach to the #UNHCR’s passing-by staff on June 25th, 2024, for an audience with their chief, urgent provision of nourishment, and queries into communication barriers at reception included two additional encounters disclosed separately in this video: a young female employee evading communication while being escorted by security post-supermarket trip, and a receptionist intercepting me in the foyer as I confronted an elderly female employee with a male colleague regarding my acute #starvation and decade-long ordeal right after their ATM withdrawal. #UNHCRIssues #HumanRights #RefugeeRights #SocialJustice #UrgentAid #StarvationCrisis #FoodInsecurity #SystemicNeglect #Captivity #UN #AccountabilityMatters #SpeakUp #Activism #GlobalAwareness #VoicesOfSurvivors #EndNeglect
