World Refugee Day 2004 National Activity Plan: Uruguay

World Refugee Day 2004 National Activity Plan: Uruguay

20 June 2004

Sixteen-year old Farihalh hardly misses school despite her numerous daily chores. Farihalh wants to become "Minister of Darfur", the region she and her family escaped in 2004.

An event honouring various partners for their activities on behalf of refugees is being organised by UNHCR, UNDP Uruguay and UNHCR non-governmental partner SEDHU.

World Refugee Day billboards will be displayed in Montevideo's main areas.
