The Syrian refugee situation, has become one of the biggest humanitarian crisis’ in the last decade. An estimated 9 million Syrians have fled their homes since the outbreak of civil war in March 2011. We see it on tv. We read about it in the news…but do we understand who and what a refugee is?
Refugees around the world constitute millions of people. Migrant and refugee communities need helping hand from your community to prevent and resolve conflicts, and to help achieve security and peace.
Whether it’s the rich western world of Europe and America where millions of refugees have landed in hope of asylum, or the South-East Asian countries like Malaysia, and Bangladesh, where thousands of Rohingya Muslims have entered from Buddhist Myanmar, the world is witnessing a refugee crisis far intense than ever before.
Although India has decided to deport nearly 40,000 Rohingyas, who illegally entered India from Myanmar and Bangladesh borders, but on the other hand, India is home to nearly 3 lakh refugees from 30 odd countries.
Apart from refugees from neighbouring countries like Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Pakistan and Bangladesh, India also houses refugees from rich western countries like the US, UK, France, Germany and Australia.
According to the latest available data which was presented by Minister Of State for Home Affairs Kiren Rijiju in March 2016, a total of 2,89,394 refugees living in India (as on 31/12/2014) from 28 different countries which also included stateless people. This the number of refugees living in India legally and doesn’t include the numbers of Rohingyas and Bangladeshi migrants living illegally in India.

The Muslim world is now a world of conflict and forced migrants (Dar al harb wa al muhajirun). Asylum and “refuge-seeking” are two important themes in Islamic history.
Islamic theory and teachings relating to refugees and forced displacement are known as hijrah law. It is quite different from modern refugee law. It arguably gives more protection to asylum-seekers and refugees (mustaminun). However, hijrah law is rarely referred to or invoked today. If they were taken into consideration, it could contribute greatly to the protection of the forcibly displaced. It might also reduce the numerous problems refugees all over the globe are facing.

UIT - Trobz - Odoo (OpenERP) Programming Overview. First of many slides for the laboratory sessions thanks to the partnership between UIT <uit.edu.vn> and Trobz <trobz.com>.
Well I do like the opportunity to talk about things that matter, and things I think are very important. So my Birthday party gave me such a chance. Now I am sharing it with you, so that you can see what I think is urgent. Let me know what you think. And thank you for watching.
Forced migration has accompanied persecution, as well as war, throughout human history but has only become a topic of serious study and discussion relatively recently. This increased attention is the result of greater ease of travel, allowing displaced persons to flee to nations far removed from their homes, the creation of an international legal structure of human rights, and the realizations that the destabilizing effects of forced migration, especially in parts of Africa, the Middle East, south and central Asia, ripple out well beyond the immediate region.
For nearly 90 years, the International Rescue Committee (IRC) has supported communities and peoples affected by crisis, conflict, persecution, and disaster.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

of Refugees
• A refugee is a person who is outside their country of citizenship because they
have well-founded grounds for fear of persecution because of their race, religion,
nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion, and is
unable to obtain sanctuary from their home country or, owing to such fear, is
unwilling to avail themselves of the protection of that country
- According to Google
• A person who has been forced to leave their country in order to escape war,
persecution, or natural disaster.
- According to Us

refugee camp is years.
Many camps are heavily
guarded, surrounded by
barbed wire. Refugees are
sometimes treated cruelly by
guards. Most camps are
operated by the United
Nations and receive help
from donor countries. The
refugees await solutions to
the problems in their
homelands.

14. Refugees in Nepal
Nepal is home to 38,490 refugees officially recognized by the United
Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). Tibetan and Bhutanese
refugees account for a large majority of Nepal’s refugee population.
Refugees from Bhutan
In the early 1990s, close to 106,000 Bhutanese refugees settled in
seven ,supervised camps in eastern Nepal after being evicted from their homes
in Bhutan when the government introduced a new law removing citizenship and civil
rights due to ancestor. Without the right to work or own land in Nepal these refugees
have been dependent on food aid from the United Nations . After several failed
discussions aimed at repatriating the refugees to Bhutan or Nepal, the refugees are
now beginning to be relocated to other international destinations with the help of the
UNHCR and the International Organization for Migration. Since the start of its
Bhutanese refugee resettlement initiative in 2007 the UNHCR has relocated over
20,000 refugees. The United States accommodated 17,612 of these refugees, with
the rest moving to Australia, Canada, Norway, New Zealand, Denmark, and The
Netherlands.
The five Bhutanese refugee camps in Nepal are:
O Beldangi
O Goldhap
O Khudunabari
O Sanischare
O Timai
15. Refugees from Tibet
In the years 1959, 1960, and 1961 following the 1959 Tibetan uprising and
exile of the Dalai Lama, over 20,000 Tibetans migrated to Nepal. Since then
many have emigrated to India or settled in refugee camps set up by
the International Committee of the Red Cross, the Government of Nepal,
the Swiss Government, Services for Technical Co-operation Switzerland,
and Australian Refugees Committee. Those who arrived before 1989 were
issued refugee ID cards and benefited from de facto economic integration;
however, more recent arrivals have no legal status and cannot own property,
businesses, vehicles, or be employed lawfully. Many of these recent arrivals
transit through Nepal on their way to India. Currently there are twelve
Tibetan Refugee camps in Nepal, each supervised by a representative
appointed by the Central Tibetan Administration

PokharaWalung
O Many of the recent arrivals have faced so many challenges and unjust at
Nepal borders.
16. Other refugees
O Although Nepal is home to some 800,000 stateless residents, the exact
number of refugees is uncertain because Nepal is not a signatory of the 1951
U.N.Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees that ensures the legal
status and economic rights of refugees. Nepal’s National Unit for the
Coordination of Refugee Affairs has requested that the UNHCR not
recognize additional cases of urban refugees within its borders in an effort
to prevent Nepal from becoming a safe haven for illegal immigrants. Among
the 600 refugees already recognized are mostly Pakistanis and few Somalis,
many of who belong to the Ahmadiya community that fled religious
persecution in Pakistan, while the Somalis have been a victims of human
trafficking.
17. Organization working under solving refugee
O United Nations High Commission for Refugees
UNHCR has been working with NGOs since we first began
helping the forcibly displaced in the early 1950s. As our work and
size grew to cope with emerging refugee crises in the 1960s,
1970s and 1980s, especially in Africa, Asia and Central America,
so did our ties with a wide range of newly formed humanitarian
and refugee-related NGOs.
18. O Immigrant and refugee commity organization
IRCO's mission is to promote the integration of refugees, immigrants and the community
at large into a self-sufficient, healthy and inclusive multi-ethnic society.
Founded in 1976 by refugees for refugees, IRCO has nearly 40 years of history and experience
working with Portland's refugee and immigrant communities. Following the 1970s political upheavals
in Southeast Asia, Oregon and Washington were two of the first states to offer new opportunities and
homes to refugees. A group of Vietnamese, Laotian and Cambodian refugees in Portland formed the
Indochinese Cultural and Service Center (ICSC) to help newly arrived families adjust to American
society and find jobs.
By the mid-'80s, ICSC joined forces with another community-based organization, Southeast Asian
Refugee Federation (SEARF). The newly formed International Refugee Center of Oregon (IRCO)
became the sole service provider of employment services and job training for all newly arrived
refugees, a role IRCO has retained ever since. We became the Immigrant and Refugee Community
Organization in 2001. In 1994, IRCO founded the Asian Family Center, the first of our culturally and
linguistically specific one stop service locations, followed by the establishment of Africa House in 2006.
