EXTRA CREDIT: REFUGEE INFORMATION SHEET

Wednesday Nov 25:  Thanks to Mikaela Bell (former intern for the International Rescue Committee) for coming to speak to our class today about refugees! 



GROUP ACTIVITY:

1. What is the official definition of a refugee? Who decides which migrants receive refugee status, and how?
2. International statistics: How many refugees are there in the world currently? Where are they located?
3. How many refugees are there currently in the U.S. and what countries are they from?
4. What organizations work with refugees in Arizona? What did Governor Ducey recently announce about refugees and Arizona?
5. How many refugees are there in Tucson and where are they from? Are there any Syrian refugees in Tucson?
6. How can I best help refugees?

EXTRA CREDIT (10 PTS) - COMPILE ALL THIS INFORMATION INTO THE FACT SHEET BELOW. If you were not in class Wednesday, you may still earn 10 points extra credit if you contribute some facts to this online fact sheet. I have made comments and/or suggestions in the document for edits and additional information.
