WORLD REFUGEE DAY 2017

The world often sits idly by, watching conflicts flare up, as if these were mere entertainment rather than human beings whose lives are being destroyed. While, behind it all, many people including women, children, even infants who hasn’t been able to enjoy playing with friends, violated and suffered from the irresponsible actions of others. Whereas God created every man to be free. The ability to choose whether to live free or enslaved, right or wrong, happy or in fear is something called freewill. And every man was born with freewill to be respected. However, according to the UNHCR, there are 59.5 million forcibly displaced people around the world which consist of 20 million refugees and 10 million stateless people. Within 20 million refugees worldwide, 51% are under the age of 18. These numbers describe how big challenges the world is facing. Thus, on this World Refugee Day, let us take time to gather your courage and join hands in the building of a world in which less people will be forced to flee.
