Refugiados e migrantes: longe de casa

[Music] r [Music] [Music] [Music] I'm say [Music] 22-year-old aah fled her home country in Central America with her son Brian after gang started to threaten her and demanded she pay a war tax the country AA fled from cannot be named for her own protection the re is among the most violent in the world aah decided to make the dangerous journey to Mexico alone she begged for food during the day and hid in the bushes at night in recent years tens of thousands have fled the north triangle of Central America seeking Asylum from the Region's rampant

crime and gang violence [Music] [Music] [Music] these high figures are not just figures behind each one of these 65 million people is a story of uh fear of dispossession of Exile and of hopelessness we need not to forget that we need to remember that to draw from that awareness that these are human beings with human stories we need to draw from that awareness A Renewed sense that we need to tackle this all together that uh none of us is exempt from that responsibility [Music] Susanna says that she will die from sorrow months ago she watched

in horror as anti-government militia in Bundi violently tore her family apart [Music] [Music] the violent acts weren't solely attributed to anti-government militia manasi a hospital pharmacist was arrested by burundi's prover forces he still Bears the scars of his tortures three month stay in [Music] prison more than 200 70,000 people have fled to neighboring countries particularly Tanzania uh DRC and Randa and that flow hasn't ended because the internal conflict in Burundi continues to be the cause of uh uh internal and especially external displacement all this to say that uh uh Africa is and Remains the theater

of some of the largest Refugee situations in the world unfortunately um uh it has not received enough attention funding of our operations in Africa continues to be very low it is important that the same attention that is put in trying to address politically either the crisis is exercised also in Africa because in the end like everywhere else you need to make peace in order to find a way forward for this millions of refugees in this place [Music] [Music] of [Music] I'm not sure how many years it will take to we eliminate conflict that would be

long time I'm hopeful that we'll make some difference uh it may not be a huge difference right away we won't see a lot of difference coming quickly but we can at least set the grounds for people thinking about refugees and migrants in a different way accepting them more more easily and readily on the Greek island of Samos volunteers like Gabby are helping refugees who arrive on Shore near their home after fleeing conflicts abroad and then we rush down to here grab our emergency bags what includes diapers the clothes what I'm fixing milk and juice for

the slow slow this extreme situation shows a weird character of somebody there were some people who just stood there at the HB most the old ladies and just cried when they saw all this wet small children some of the people I think act aggressive because they cannot actually do what they want so when I take this people and say please just keep this baby warm yeah not to give me anything just keep the children when they come because they have to be safe they have to have the feeling that somebody's there they're actually very sweet

because I can give [Music] something we talk about they're needing safety and dignity you know they you need to have a journey that's safe they need to arrive somewhere and be welcomed uh rather than resisted you know and pushed back but they also need to have what we're calling inclusion well as soon as they get somewhere they need to know that not just that they're welcome but they they can begin to learn the language they can be offered a job they can be offered some skills training or education or a scholarship uh that's the kind

of thing we're trying to [Music] mobilize in sa Paulo Brazil talal and his family have found this inclusion thanks to the country's Open Door policies palan's family fled Syria to Lebanon in 20133 but he wanted to seek more opportunities abroad determin to avoid a dangerous sea Crossing talal found another way Brazil's humanitarian Visa program for Syrian refugees once they arrived talal raised money through crowdfunding to start a new business Brazilians donated $2,000 us to their cause his wife hazal now cooks for their thriving catering business offering abyan dishes with more help talal is already at

work setting up his new restaurant [Music] bra what is you go [Music] seven or eight countries host more than half uh the refugees in the world and likewise seven or eight countries provide more than half of the funding to help the refugees and displaced this is not a sustainable situation especially with the problem becoming so big and complex remember refugees are not just the responsibility of a few receiving countries or of a few donors they're a collective responsibility if you read the refugee convention it its Preamble which was written 65 years ago that Preamble like

the whole convention still very very is very valid today it says refugees are an international responsibility
