World Refugee Day 2003 National Activity Plan: Azerbaijan

World Refugee Day 2003 National Activity Plan: Azerbaijan

1 April 2003

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.

UNHCR and the Norwegian Refugee Council will organise an outdoor drawing competition for young people.

The refugee agency and NGOs (UMID, HAYAT, BUTA) will also hold a concert with musicians from the communities of refugees and internally displaced persons.

Various events, such as an art exhibition and sport competitions, will be organised with help from local NGOs in areas where internally displaced persons live. The UNHCR film, "Facing Our Future," will be screened.
