Dushanbe, Tajikistan - The public organization "Refugees’ Children and Vulnerable Citizens" and UPF hosted a meeting on October 25 during the visit to Dushanbe of Danielle Mane, mother of Karine Mane, a volunteer with the international humanitarian organization "Doctors without Borders" who was killed during the civil war in Tajikistan in 1997.
Karine Mane came to Tajikistan in 1996. After the 1992-97 civil war, 58,000 children became orphans and 26,000 women lost their husbands. Karine Mane helped create the center for educating street children.
