World Refugee Day 2007 National Activities: Croatia

World Refugee Day 2007 National Activities: Croatia

20 June 2007

Refugee children wash their families' clothes in Djabal camp. Many children are overwhelmed with daily chores and as a result attend school only sporadically.

On 17 June, UNHCR co-sponsored the screening of "Live and Become" at the first Jewish Film Festival in Zagreb.

On 22 June, UNHCR and an NGO partner organized a sports day for 150 children from different ethnic backgrounds in Kistanje, near Knin. UNHCR distributed ninemillion.org footballs to participants. A total of 500 footballs were distributed in areas of return.
