Produktbeschreibung
Roz Doe holds an MSc in Forced Migration and has been working with young refugees and asylum seekers for over 20 years. In 2004, she co-founded the charity, Young Roots, which worked with young refugees in Lebanon, Egypt and Nepal and currently provides services for young people living in London. Young refugees have been forced to flee the only life they have ever known, escaping unimaginable situations of war and persecution. Many face further traumatic experiences on their journeys to the UK, and the vast majority of young refugees arrive here alone, without their family or any sense of community. Instead of finding safety, relief and care, they are met with hostility and isolation, as well as disbelief around the most fundamental parts of their identity, such as their age.The poems and prose in Welcoming Blue Robins were inspired by young refugees she worked with and the pamphlet also contains poems written by and with young refugees in London.
