One participants summed up the session: “I have been quite ignorant to refugee people in the past. In these few short hours my eyes have been opened to this issue. Understanding will help breakdown perceptions. This will help people to see things through their eyes.” Another participant stated: “Gaining knowledge about refugee matters that aren’t necessarily portrayed in the media” was the best thing about the session. |
