Instructions
Have the group interview a recently arrived refugee. Or, if possible have each group member commit to volunteering for a refugee for a week. (Helping with daily tasks such as shopping, registering children at school, getting a driving license, looking for a job, attending ESL classes, etc.)
Discussion points
- How was your experience shadowing a refugee for a week?
- If you had to leave your home and never return, and if you could pack only one suit case, what would you take?
- If your life had to stop right now because you would be in a refugee camp for five years, what would you lose?
