Un refugiado es una persona que se encuentra fuera del país de donde es originario, o bien donde reside habitualmente, debido a un temor fundamentado de persecución por razones de etnia, religión, otro. De cara a que se acerca el 20 de junio, día en que Naciones Unidas conmemora el día del refugiado, en Cultural Survival nos dimos la tarea de investigar sobre el tema, entrevistamos a varias personas Indígenas que han experimentado dicha situación, y hemos preparado un reporte especial para usted.
