World Refugee Day 2007 National Activities: Armenia

World Refugee Day 2007 National Activities: Armenia

20 June 2007

UNHCR staff register refugees at the Douma registration center on the outskirts of Damascus. Registering with UNHCR ensures that the most vulnerable refugees receive aid.

A roundtable discussion was held on the problems that refugees face in accessing basic services such as housing and health.

In cooperation with the Cultural Association of Refugees, UNHCR on 20 June presented a book of stories and poems written by refugees, naturalized former refugees and native Armenians. Refugees and locals took part in a WRD concert.
