This radio programme includes a story from the files of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, narrated by Wilfred Thomas. The story was originally provided from a band of balalaika players in a European refugee camp. It details the journeys and struggles the members faced to find work and countries where they were accepted. Produced for Human Rights Day in 1955, this story was intended to bring awareness to the many refugees still in need of help and the promise held by the United Nations to provide aid. This programme was recorded at the United Nations Information Centre in Geneva.
