The Resilience of Refugees in Serbia
Imagine a cosy fire in a desolate field somewhere near the Serbian -Croatian border with ten young Afghan men, a few volunteers and a Canadian journalist.
Clothes and food had been handed out, and some first aid applied.
Suddenly we were all up singing and dancing the Macarena, followed by learning some Afghan moves!
It was such a special evening. To have so much fun and laughter despite all the stress, sadness and despair these people have to endure as refugees.
It’s not just a bag of clothes , food, or a blanket they need
It’s the warm connection with other human beings who want to spend time with you.
For me, that’s the best part of volunteering
