Displaced family from Srebrenica still dream of finding a permanent home 20 years after the war.
These pictures show 11-year old Azemina and her parents Mujo and Hata Sulejmanovic, who live in the village of Brgule in central Bosnia.
Mujo and Hata Sulejmanovic are Bosniak (Bosnian Muslim) refugees from the eastern town of Srebrenica, which was captured by Bosnian Serb forces in July 1995. More than 7,000 Bosniak men and boys were massacred in the days that followed.
Like many displaced people, the Sulejmanovics moved around looking for a permanent home. In their case, they ended up living in Brgule's cultural centre, where they have a single, concrete-floored room with neither kitchen nor bathroom.
Azemina is the only child in Brgule and has no one to play with. The only other people still living in the village are six elderly families.
The nearest school is 15 kilometres away, and Azemina rarely goes there, because her parents do not own a car and cannot afford public transport.
