Refugee Week
Refugee – person fleeing disasters, war or political/religious persecution
Refugee Week is a UK-wide festival celebrating the contributions, creativity and resilience of refugees. Founded in 1998 and held every year around World Refugee Day on the 20 June, Refugee Week is also a growing global movement.
Refugee issues /media influence
Refugee week is about making us think and Refugee Week brings about positive encounters between communities, helping them to connect and learn from each other, and promoting a culture of welcome.We need to consider:-1. Why people have mixed feelings
towards refugees2. How the media shape these
situations?3. Why people aren’t accepting of
refugees?
Media Misconceptions
• They are not all criminals!• They do not want our
jobs!• They do not want to take
over the UK!
• They want to go home!
• They want their families safe!
• They want to feel safe!
Refugees are forced migrants; they are not choosing to leave. Their migration is legal.
Some Refugees FactsQ. Which countries help the most refugees?A. At the end of 2018, the country hosting the most refugees was Turkey – home to almost 3.7 million refugees. Other significant host countries for refugees were Pakistan (1.4 million), Uganda (1.2 million), Sudan (1.1 million), Iran (979,435) and Lebanon (949,666).Q. How many Syrian refugees are there and how many is the UK helping?A. According to the UNHCR, by the end of 2018 there were 6.7 million Syrian refugees worldwide. Around 4.6 million of these refugees are currently being hosted by just two countries –Turkey and Lebanon.As well as providing aid to the refugee camps on Syria’s borders, the UK has pledged to resettle 20,000 Syrians by 2020 through the Vulnerable Persons Resettlement Scheme. By June 2019, 17,051 Syrian refugees had come to the UK through this scheme.
Q. Are there many refugees and asylum seekers in the UK?A. No. According to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), by the end of 2018 there were 126,720 refugees, 45,244 pending asylum cases and 125 stateless persons in the UK. That’s around one quarter of a percent (0.26%) of the UK’s total population.
