"Inaction" on refugees must stop, young Syrian tells world leaders

Too often "inaction" is the only thing that the international community can agree on, when it comes to finding a solution to the refugee crisis.

That's the passionate view of one young Syrian refugee and activist, addressing world leaders on Monday at the opening session of the High-Level Meeting to address large movements of refugees and migrants.

Mohammed Badran, from the group Syrian Volunteers in the Netherlands, said he hoped this summit would finally address the biggest refugee and displacement crisis the world has faced since World War II.
