Same Skies

Same Skies is a non-religious, politically neutral non-profit organisation, registered in Switzerland (2014), Australia (2016), Malaysia (2017) and Indonesia (2017). We are an international team of passionate humanitarian professionals who support refugees and asylum seekers. We want to drive leadership and innovation in refugee work to improve efficiency, effectiveness, quality and social outcomes. Same Skies' innovation is best described through its perception of refugees, who are traditionally seen as vulnerable. We focus on their resilience instead. Our work is based on the conviction that every individual has skills and knowledge to contribute to society. This paradigm shift has a very significant, transformative impact on people's lives when it is applied throughout every step of a project.
