World Refugee Day 2003 National Activity Plan: Greece

UNHCR will distribute World Refugee Day leaflets, press ads and videos with the support of the national transport company and the Athens Municipality, and possibly other municipalities around the country.

The refugee agency will draft and negotiate with the government a joint policy paper for the protection of separated asylum-seeker children in Greece.

A benefit pop concert will be held for young people. An essay and drawing contest will also be launched among primary and secondary students. Award-winning essays from the previous years' contests will be published. For publicity, a selected group of journalists will also be briefed on the issues of refugee youth.
