Secretariat
In light of the function of Refugees United as an "online-only" application meant to provide refugees with a self-empowering tool, Refugees United is rather small in comparison to many other NGO's.
From the onset, it has been our goal to keep staff at limited numbers, outsourcing most of our needs to competent 3rd party professionals. A core belief of Refugees United is to gather many hands
of strength instead of relying on few to lift the weight.
