Refugees Welcome Portugal

We believe that all people should be treated with dignity and respect, and the situations of the most vulnerable should receive special attention.

We repudiate all forms of discrimination, whether racial, national, cultural, religious, social, gender, or otherwise. We believe in building an open, informed, prejudice-free, and welcoming society, especially for those who, suffering persecution, coming from conflict zones, or simply lacking the means to lead a dignified life, are forced to leave their homes and seek refuge with us.

Our vision for a more humane world extends far beyond the borders we know. Our actions go beyond our community, our city, and even our country. We do not believe it is possible to remain indifferent to the situation of refugees in other countries, which is why we maintain a constant international presence providing humanitarian support to migrants and refugees in transit countries.

We also believe it is our mission to share with the local and international community the humanitarian context we witness across Europe, raising awareness of the population's potential to respond to crisis situations and the emergence of policies that disrespect the human rights of migrants and refugees, as well as other vulnerable populations.

Refugees Welcome Portugal is therefore made up of people who fight every day to build a better world.
