Fifth Annual World Refugee Day Poster Contest

 
 

“Refugee Rights are Human Rights” is the central theme of the Fifth Annual World Refugee Day poster contest, sponsored by UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador Angelina Jolie. Students throughout the United States, grades 4-12, designed posters reflecting the basic human rights of refugees, and how having access to food, water, shelter and medicine can help ensure their survival and safety. The three selected winners will travel to Washington, DC, to open the World Refugee Day exhibit at the National Geographic Museum at Explorers Hall. Their posters will be on display at National Geographic from May 19 – July 17, 2005.
