What does home look like to you? For many, it’s where you grew up, where you created memories, and where you feel surrounded by your community. Now, imagine losing the only home you’ve ever known. That’s the reality for many families when war and other crises cause them to flee—and they become refugees or internally displaced persons.
Today, more than 400 million young people live in areas of the world experiencing conflict, from Ethiopia to the war in Ukraine and the situation in Afghanistan.
The Welcoming Refugees Project who we are delighted to be partnering with invites young people from around the world to join together in learning about those displaced by war and other crises. Students are invited to create a work of art welcoming refugees that reflects culture, community and connection.
Students will also be inspired by the journey of education partner Little Amal—a moving, public, interactive arts exhibition that helps to raise awareness around the conditions of refugee youth around the world by building partnerships with local communities.
Students Rebuild will then make a donation for every piece of art submitted through the Welcoming Refugees Project to support Choose Love’s work providing vital emergency support.
The Welcoming Refugees project allows students to make a real impact on this global crisis by deepening their empathy for their global neighbours, and turning that empathy into action by raising funds that can change the lives of families experiencing conflict.
Find out how to apply to join the Welcoming Refugees project on the Students Rebuild website.
