Today's contributor is Paul Simard.  Paul is Director of Community and Impact Partnerships for the United Nations High Commission for Refugees and Canada, where he engages in partners with Quebec individuals, foundations and corporations tackling the challenges facing refugees around the world. He is also the founder of huMENity, a peer driven platform that creates brave spaces for men of all ages to come together and grow through an openness to be vulnerable, share and support each other based on the African greeting of Sawubona, which means 'I see you, and I'm here for you to be seen'.
