Today is World Refugee Day.
It's a day to remember most vulnerable and oppressed. These are the people who were let down by their own government
Unfortunately, the policy of many states and international players still aims to invisiblize them.This is our attempt to prevent that.
On this World Refugee Day, let's recognise the human rights of the refugees, let's accept that they are also humans who had to leave their everything to save their identity, their lives. Let's extend a hand of love, friendship and humanity.
