ACTA Webinar: The Refugee Experience – Resources for Teachers

Wednesday 28th October 2020, 7:00-8:00pm AEDT

‘Refugees’ describes the situation of people, but it doesn’t define who they are.  Australia has many different refugee communities.  Whether you are looking to learn more about refugees, you have a friend from that community, or you are teaching refugees and/or other students, the wealth of resources on the Refugee Council of Australia’s website is there for you.  Click here to access the classroom resources for teachers.
