Headline Refugee Resettlement in Colombia

Caption Description As a special contribution to World Refugee Year, the Government of Colombia allowed 150 refugee families to enter the country. Since the end of World War II, some 1,573 refugees have been admitted into the country, a number of them sponsored by the Colombian Catholic Immigration Committee (CCIC) which has helped them to find jobs and achieve economic and social integration into the communities in which they have settled.
One of the refugees (left, on the phone) helped by the CCIC is the co-owner of the tailoring establishment where this photograph was taken as another refugee was being measured for a suit in one of the fitting-rooms. The husband of this refugee is co-owner of a thriving liquor plant. They came to Colombia with their two children in January 1959. [Exact date unknown]
