About this person

Diana Budisavljević was an Austrian humanitarian who led a major relief effort in Yugoslavia during World War II. From October 1941, on her initiative and involving many co-workers, she organized and provided assistance to women and children who were mostly Serbian Orthodox detained in the Ustaše camps in the Independent State of Croatia, a Nazi puppet state established in occupied Yugoslavia. The operation, known as "Action Diana Budisavljević", succeeded in saving around 10,000 children. After her story was better publicized in the 2000s and 2010s, she received substantial posthumous recognition.
