What does it mean to be a refugee in Italy? Where does the integration of people fleeing from wars and persecutions and looking for a possible future in Europe begin? June 20 is celebrated the World Refugee Day to bring attention to the condition of refugees around the world. We present the official ad of the campaign exclusively Together we can do anything (Together we can make a difference), launched byUnited Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) signed and directed by the actress and director Greta Scarano. With one goal: to ask for the full inclusion of refugees in every area of ​​society, from work to study to sport.
At the center of the video is there the story of Ruth, arrived in Italy, where she found protection, after escaping from the Congo. Here Ruth was able to fulfill her dream: to become a doctor. And today, as Greta Scarano tells in the video made with Ruth, she follows the vaccination campaign in Chivasso. Thanks to his determination and the tools he had at his disposal. She is also president of the Mosaic Action Refugee Association and collaborates with the Piedmont health company also in the context of the Covid-19 emergency.
“Today Ruth is a resource for the community that welcomed her,” she says Greta Scarano, for several years alongside UNHCR and refugees. «It was important for us to tell his story because it is far from the stereotypes we are used to imagine when it comes to refugees and we consider them people who only need assistance. They are people like us, with qualities, strengths and weaknesses. If we help them enhance their talents, we can all enjoy them. We cannot pretend that these people do not exist.
People on the run like Ruth, into the world they are 80 million, 1% of the global population. “Wars and persecutions are real even if we are not used to imagining them” underlines the actress. “It is our duty to be inclusive and to learn what hospitality is without thinking that we are taking something away from our compatriots. Instead we are creating a virtuous circle from which we will all benefit ».
Before being refugees, they are students, teachers, doctors, athletes, professionals, cooks. They have passions and desires to shape, families to protect and grow with them. “The inclusion of refugees in the communities that host them is not only possible, but already exists in many cases,” he stresses Chiara Cardoletti, UNHCR representative for Italy, the Holy See and San Marino. “Italy is full of examples of people who have managed to rebuild their future here. Stories of people who show that investing in the future of refugees, through access to education and the labor market, is an investment for the well-being of the whole country. Stronger communities are built together, not only with the work of the institutions but through the efforts of all of us ».
