Angolan refugees are pictured in 1969 waiting to receive daily rations in the Etsha settlement, Botswana.
As Angola’s war of independence intensified in 1967–68, around 3,300 Hambukushu people fled across the border to Botswana.
In the 1960s, UNHCR’s mission expanded well beyond the boundaries of Europe, notably to sub-Saharan Africa as the colonial era ended.
Ultimately, the fortunes of the Hambukushu in Botswana would prove to be one of the most successful refugee integration stories of the 20th century.
As part of “The Colour of Flight” project, Brazilian artist @marinaarts breathed new life into this photo to help bring some of history to life.
