On December 28th, 2020, Asia Culture and Art Organization (aka Asia Culture House) and the United Nations in Afghanistan organized virtual dialogue with refugees and refugee rights advocates. 5 Participants discussed the refugee crisis, the future and what it holds, what we need to do now to make the world is a better place to live, and what role the United Nations can play.
The dialogue was part of a series of global consultations that the United Nations’ Secretary-General launched for its 75th anniversary. We thank the following panelists for their unique insights:
