Kumin, Judith
Abstract
Judith Kumin retired from a 32-year career working for the United Nations High Commission for Refugees. She discusses the UNHCR response to the postwar Indochinese refugee crisis, including the Orderly Departure Program (1979 -1994) that helped to resettle refugees in the United States and other Western countries and the Humanitarian Program for Former Political Detainees (HO) to assist former South Vietnamese who had suffered persecution by the communist regime after 1975.
