Hii Mate:)
Explanation:
Due to the current geopolitical situation more refugees from crisis countries were and will be treated in Europe. In 2015 the number of displaced people reached an unprecedented level, with more than one million crossing into Europe. The migration itself can impair both mental and physical health. Therefore, the provision of medical care for refugees and migrants is a novel and major challenge for the health care systems in Europe. In this article we describe our experiences and contribution in providing medical care for refugees who have newly arrived in Stuttgart, Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany.
Explanation:
Essence of the refugee problem: find a home
2,200,000 refugees now under UNHCR mandate, over half in Europe
But this mandate still excludes many more (e.g. Palestinians, East Germans in West, Europeans in China, Indian Moslems in Pakistan, Pakistani Hindus in India)
Difference is that UNHCR mandate refugees are aliens in their country of asylum
Convention now ratified by 15 parliaments
Protection starts with the eligibility process
Within Europe the demand for repatriation following WWII has now subsided
9 million returned home 1945-7, only 70,000 1947-51
Most remaining refugees dream of a new life overseas
But in reality there are limited places, and they tend to go to the fittest and brightest
So assimilation becomes the most likely solution for most refugees, like it or not
UNHCR not an operational agency (voluntary agencies do this)
This keeps costs and staff requirements down (currently 123 at headquarters and branch offices)
Main battle for UNHCR has been to persuade governments that the refugee issue not solved
Turning point 1: authorisation to establish a Refugee Emergency Fund for neediest
Turning point 2: thanks to a Ford Foundation donation, longer-term integration projects possible and seen as workable
Turning point 3: General Assembly approves a 4-year programme
Unfortunately, raising the funds for the programme has proved troublesome
The existence of so many refugees in Europe in wretched conditions shames us all
By Gerrit Jan van Heuven Goedhart | 12 December 1955
On the tenth of December, 60 years ago almost to the day, Alfred Bernhard Nobel died in his villa at San Remo in Italy, 63 years old. The villa bore the name of “Mio Nido” and I do not know whether he himself thus christened his house. Perhaps he acquired it with name and all. Anyway, there is a lot to that name, “Mio Nido”, “My Nest”. For Alfred Nobel - I use the words of Professor Henrik Schück who ten years ago wrote a biographical sketch of Nobel - was “a lonely man and with his sensitive nature he suffered keenly from the misfortune of being without a home.” He spent his youth in different countries and most of his later life he was travelling and living in hotel-rooms, ships and night trains. His interests were spread over many lands. Combining the best qualities of an inventor and a business man, a rare phenomenon, fighting most of his life against increasingly failing health, Alfred Nobel became more and more aware of a painful lack of a sense of belonging, and of man’s need for roots in a family and in a community. Ragnar Sohlman, who during the latter years of Nobel’s life knew him better than most of his contemporaries, in a sketch of Nobel’s closing years, quotes a letter of his, saying: “For the past nine days I have been ill and have had to stay indoors with no other company than a paid valet; no one enquires about me. When at the age of fifty-four one is left so alone in the world, and a paid servant is the only person who has so far shown one the most kindness, then come heavy thoughts, heavier than most people can imagine. I can see in my valet’s eyes how much he pities me, but I cannot, of course, let him notice that.”
Alfred Nobel was a lonely man, or, in a sense, a “displaced person”, a “homeless foreigner”. He was by birth and passport a Swede, but in his later days he spoke not so much his mother tongue, of which he had an unusual command, - but mostly English, a language in which he wrote remarkably beautiful poetry. Whereas we may be inclined to combine Nobel’s name with the image of a hardboiled businessman, an extremely successful moneymaker, Alfred Nobel was in reality a poet, a dreamer, an adventurer in science, an idealist at heart, a philosopher in essence - he did, in fact, leave a sketch for a novel in which he advocated a form of government along Platonic lines. Even in his most striking inventions, of which dynamite is only one, he saw not ends but means. When Countess Bertha von Kinsky von Chinic und Tettan, later Bertha von Suttner - Nobel Prize winner and world famous through her “Die Weffe nieder!” tried to interest him in her peace-actions (for a short time, in fact for one week only, she had been secretary and housekeeper of the dynamite-maker Alfred Nobel, who was living in Paris), this was his reply: “My factories may make an end of war sooner than your congresses. The day when two army corps can annihilate each
