The Diana Budisavljevi\u0107 Award is awarded by the Serbian National Council for the first time for commitment to humanism. Long-term work in anti-war campaigns, on building peace, persistent advocacy for the memory of the victims of war, as well as the insistence on confronting all warring parties with the crimes committed, ensured Vesna Ter\u0161elic this valuable recognition.<\/p>\n
Diana Budisavljevi\u0107 (Innsbruck, 15. sije\u010dnja 1891. – Innsbruck, 20. kolovoza 1978.) bila je hrvatska humanitarka i nezavisna socijalna aktivistica.
During World War II, from 1941 to 1945, she encouraged and organized rescues from Ustasha concentration camps, participated in the care and kept systematic data on around 12,000, mostly Serbian children and their mothers from the Kordun and Kozara areas.
She was born and educated in Innsbruck, Austria. After finishing high school, she married dr. honey. Julija Budisavljevi\u0107a and moved to Zagreb with him in 1919. After the establishment of the Faculty of Medicine dr. Budisavljevi\u0107 founded the Department of Surgery and was appointed professor of surgery.
Saznav\u0161i za stradanje srpskih \u017eena i djece u usta\u0161kom logoru Loborgrad, u jesen 1941., Diana Budisavljevi\u0107 sa skupinom suradnika organizira “Akciju Diane Budisavljevi\u0107” kako ju je sama nazvala.
The action consisted of collecting and sending aid in the form of money, food, clothing and medicine to women and children imprisoned in the Loborgrad, Gornja Rijeka, Stara Gradi\u0161ka, Jasenovac, Mlaka and Jablanac camps; then extracting and transporting mothers and children from the camps; then, adopting abandoned camp children into families in Zagreb, Jastrebarsko and Sisak, as well as into children's homes and hospitals, and collecting aid for their support. In addition, she kept a systematic and complex file of records of children, which enabled their reunification with mothers and fathers who had been sent to forced labor in Germany. In addition to caring for their bare life and survival, Diana Budisavljevi\u0107 tried to preserve the identity of the children and thus enable their return to their families.<\/p>\n
Svjedo\u010danstvo o svom djelovanju kao i o stravi\u010dnom usta\u0161kom teroru nad srpskim \u017eenama i djecom, preto\u010dila je u dnevnik koji zapo\u010dinje 23. listopada 1941., a zavr\u0161ava 7. velja\u010de 1947. Dnevnik svjedo\u010di o njezinoj izuzetnoj hrabrosti, upornosti, humanosti i nesebi\u010dnosti. Brigom Dianine unuke, psihologinje dr. Silvije Szabo, sa\u010duvana je dokumentacija i dnevnik na osnovu kojih je Hrvatski dr\u017eavni arhiv izdao knjigu “Dnevnik Diane Budisavljevi\u0107” 2003. godine.
Immediately after liberation, in May 1945, and at the request of the Ministry of Social Policy, or the Department for the Protection of the People (OZNA), she had to hand over the files with data on the children and parents of the concentration camp to the authorities.
