On 11 July, MINURSO marked the celebration of Mongolia’s State Flag Day at the Mission’s Team Site Tifariti where one of MINURSO’s Mongolian peacekeepers is posted.

This year’s World Population Day falls during a milestone year, when we anticipate the birth of the Earth’s eight billionth inhabitant.

World Refugee Day is intended to be a celebration of the human spirit and of the fortitude of the millions of people who ­ despite being displaced and dispossessed - relentlessly strive to improve their lives and those of their families and communities.
