“We don’t want to stay here, abandoned in the desert”
A collection of testimonies of the protest of Sudanese refugees in the Agadez camp, in Niger
As the protests by refugees continue in the controversial “ humanitarian center ” of Agadez , the government of Niger received Elizabeth Tan, director of the Division for International Protection at the UNHCR office in Geneva, in early December. This was an important visit given the profile of Tan, who has worked for UNHCR since 1995 and has operated in several African contexts, including Burundi, Egypt and Sudan.
