Soul Art: Empowering Refugee Children to Share Their Stories
Art Education, v77 n6 p22-28 2024
According to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (2013), more than 29 million people fall under the UNHCR's mandate, which includes "all persons outside their country of origin for reasons of feared persecution, conflict, generalized violence, or other circumstances that have seriously disturbed public order and who, as a result, require international protection" (UNHCR, 2013, p. 3). T his number does not include millions of people internally displaced or those seeking asylum or other forms of international protection. In 2024, the United States set a goal of admitting 125,000 refugees in partial response to the worldwide need for resettlement.
