In this Module, students will gain an understanding of the United Nations conventions pertaining to refugees, and the different forms of forced migration. Vahidin will then share his own direct experience of his time as a refugee, specifically how people live in refugee camps and how they are structured and managed. Students will be asked to examine their own responses to this lived experience by so many current populations around the world. Students will then be asked, “What Can I Do? and will be required to complete a proposal for a project that will address the refugee crisis.
