Description
This book explores the history of refugees and migration around the world, looking at the effects of war and conflict on people's lives. It also considers how different cultures can come together and what happens when people try to create societies that are free from certain groups.
Featuring contributions from people who have personal experience of migration, including campaigners and comedians, this book encourages readers to think for themselves about the issues involved. There is also a role-play activity asking readers to imagine themselves in the situation of having to decide whether to leave their homes and seek refuge in a new country.
Part of the 'And Other Big Questions' series, which offers balanced and considered views on the big issues we face today, this book aims to help young people understand these complex topics.
