World Refugee Day
It could happen to you too… A country slips into violence, or a natural disaster strikes, and you might have to leave everything behind you. This is World Refugee Day. There are 7.6 million people who became a refugee or were displaced in 2012, one every 4.1 seconds… Total is 45,2 million…
Between 1986 and 1994, and later in 1999 and 2000 I spent quite some time photographing refugees or IDP’s (Internally Displaced). The 22 photographs below are a small sample of the 15 different situations I covered. There is more at this link.
