The calling: Colombian woman opens home to fleeing Venezuelans
UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency
Description
For the past two years, Marta Duque has hosted scores of Venezuelans in her two-bedroom home in the mountain town of Pamplona, Colombia. The 56-year-old says the sight of Venezuelans women and children sleeping on the streets was so upsetting she decided to open her doors to those in need.
