Visual Anthropology of settlement among newly arrived refugee youth

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The majority of refugees currently arriving in Australia are youth from the middle-East and the Horn of Africa. These young people face major challenges to successful settlement, often having histories of little or no schooling, exposure to violence, and long-term residence in refugee camps. There is a lack of evidence to inform policy and practice on how to best support these young people. This project will give refugee youth the opportunity to learn technical, creative and interpersonal skills, enabling them to share their stories with both researchers and the general public and producing understandings about how they cope with the resettlement process.
