COMMUNITY ACTION WITH REFUGEES, Hong Kong
Based in Hong Kong, you will spend most of the week at the Refugee Centre in TST, run by Christian Action. There you will spend a week finding out about the life of refugees in Hong Kong, by engaging in a variety of workshops, experiences and voluntary work.
Across the world, over 60 million refugees and asylum seekers are struggling on the margins of society regardless of their race, age, gender, ethnicity, or religion. In many cases, they are traumatized by persecution, torture and violence in their home countries. In Hong Kong the Refugee Centre’s outreach and volunteer programme aims to spread awareness and understanding of refugees in Hong Kong. What exactly will you be doing during the week?
Leader: Ms O'Connor
