All over the world people are joining a global movement, in solidarity with families forced to flee their homes. So far in this year, 11,956,121 steps have been taken worldwide in countries like the US, Canada and Germany. Join other Australians and together we will walk, run or cycle the distance refugees take when fleeing throughout the month of November, whilst raising vital funds for UNHCR.

From South Sudan to Uganda, Myanmar to Bangladesh, Syria to Jordan; refugees, including separated children have endured long, dangerous and difficult journeys whilst fleeing for their lives. 

Whether you’re a walker, a jogger or a passionate athlete, you can join this global event and make every step count. Read more about the journeys of refugees, choose your distance and from November 1–30 take on the challenge to walk every day and follow in the footsteps of a courageous refugee’s journey.

Every dollar you raise throughout your challenge will go to supporting refugees forced to flee their homes.

Step with refugees this November. Register now.
