Refugees

If I had to pick up global issues that interests me the most, certainly the Refugees conditions would come in the Top 5.


Under the international law, refugees are individuals who:

* are outside their country of nationality or habitual residence;
* have a well-founded fear of persecution because of their race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group or political opinion; and
* are unable or unwilling to avail themselves of the protection of that country, or to return there, for fear of persecution.





They represent challenge, courage, a difficult scenario to overcome and a great human potential to transform reality.
