Rights like… The right to protection for unaccompanied refugee children.

Rights like… The right to be reunited with family if they live in a different country.

So, what’s the problem? Right now, refugee children are in danger. 50 million children have been uprooted from their homes, most forced to flee from violent conflict. Many of them are making dangerous journeys, risking their lives in search of safety and close family.

What are we going to do? We are going to learn about the impact of the refugee crisis on children’s rights to protection and family reunification. We are going to tell our community and our local MP what we think, to help make the family reunion law fairer.
