During both the second and the third term, in the Literacy Skills in Social Science lessons we have approached the multifaceted global issue of forced displacement, exploring the legal and personal distinctions between refugees, asylum seekers, and migrants to go then beyond those labels.
While international organisations like Amnesty International, which we have used as sources for our research, advocate for the human rights of those fleeing conflict or persecution, media reports reveal shifting political attitudes and stricter border policies across Europe and the United States.
Individual narratives from places like Ukraine, South Africa, Burma, Mozambique, Palestine and Syria illustrate the trauma of leaving home, the challenges of integration, and the persistent threat of xenophobia.
This educational initiative, that is, our Refugees School Project, has aimed to foster empathy and support for displaced people. In our lessons, we have emphasised that behind every legal status is a complex human identity defined by resilience and the search for safety.
Now it is time to set up our School Exhibition.
