Profile of Ethiopian refugee who survived Tigray conflict and is trying to rebuild a life in Sudan and help others.

Millions of people have been displaced within Ethiopia’s Tigray region since conflict began in November 2020. Mihret fled when the fighting started, leaving with nothing but the clothes on her back. She walked for long distances to safety in neighbouring Sudan. Memories of the atrocities she witnessed are still fresh. Tens of thousands of Ethiopians crossed the border to Sudan. They have been relocated to refugee settlements where UNHCR and partners are providing basic services. More support and funding is urgently needed to assist refugees heal from the trauma they have experienced and rebuild their lives.
