A refugee camp in the heart of the city
Allison
Doctors without borders/ Medecins sans frontieres have gone into cities this fall and set up refugee camps. They are in Dallas this weekend. Stop by flag poll hill off of northwest highway, just north of white rock lake from 9am-5:30pm to walk through a refugee camp.
The exhibit is made up of materials used by MSF in its emergency medical work around the world, including emergency refugee housing, a food distribution tent, water pump, health clinic, vaccination tent, therapeutic feeding center, and a cholera treatment center.
It addresses questions such as:
Will I be safe?
What will I eat?
How do I find water?
Can I get medical care?
Where will I live?
