Refugees around the world live in camps and urban settings that are horrible
beyond belief. Insufficient food, no health care, little education,
discrimination torture and harassment are part of their daily lives. Some
children have known no other life. Rape and sexual abuse is endemic in
conflict, flight and camps. Refugee women and girls live in constant
danger. Refugee men feel powerless when they are unable to protect the
women. The Center for Refugee research runs project with refugees in India
and on the Thai Burma border., providing training and assisting communities in
their advocate for
improved conditions and better protection. Student from UNSW
support these projects, paying their own way to participate in the training and
subsidizing the costs for the refugees to attend, and to provide food for them
while at the training.
