Description
There are now more than 29.5 million refugees worldwide, with over half under the age of 18. They’ve been displaced by persecution, war, and violence. Only an estimated 1% will be resettled to a new home country this year In many cases, refugees might prefer to return to their home country. Because it takes years, sometimes decades for a situation to improve, once someone has fled out of the country it is often almost impossible for them to return home.The art was created by Hale Ziad, whose family has experienced both the sadness and loss of the refugee journey and the joy of finding home and safety.
