Background:
World Refugee Day is an international day designated by the United Nations to honor refugees around the globe. It falls each year on June 20 and celebrates the strength and courage of people who have been forced to flee their home country to escape conflict or persecution. World Refugee Day is an occasion to build empathy and understanding for their plight and to recognize their resilience in rebuilding their lives.
One in every 113 people in the world is a refugee and has to leave home, so all of us need to pay attention to this issue. Let the idea of world brotherhood and Vudaiva Kutumbakam come to every country of the world and reduce the number of wars and natural disasters so that the refugee problem will be solved by itself.
