People have been seeking refuge in Australia for over 100 years. Since 1945, Australia has accepted many refugees and displaced persons for resettlement.
In this virtual program, students will learn from the personal stories of asylum seekers and the reasons why someone may choose to leave their home country.
With a focus on Australia’s resettlement policies and the role of UNHCR, students will uncover the human rights of asylum seekers and refugees.
This program is offered as an interactive virtual session.
