World Refugee Day and Everyday Do “1 Thing” 06/29/2011
On World Refugee Day, 20 June, 2011, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees launched the“1 Campaign” which is designed to put individual refugees in focus and to strengthen global protection, respect and compassion for all refugees. The campaign encourages individuals to “Do 1 Thing” in response to the plight of refugees today, especially in light of the situation of refugees and stateless persons in North Africa and the Middle East in the context of the popular demonstrations and protests that have spread across this region since the end of 2010. See "Become Involved" for "Do 1 Thing" suggestions. Read More UNHCR This is your new blog post. Click here and start typing, or drag in elements from the top bar. Add Comment |
