Asylum seekers… 23 th March 2005

They are people who have left their own country claiming persecution and are seeking a place of safety. They may be given refugee status in a new country and be able to stay. Who are asylum seekers?

Today’s task… Your task is to design a board game that will describe the journey of an asylum seeker from the minute they arrive in Britain (start) to their gaining refugee status (finish). Along the way there may be things that help them in their quest and there may be things that hold them back. You could show this by using snakes and ladders OR by asking the player to move forwards or backwards.

When you arrive you so as soon as possible to ask for asylum. You are carrying proof that you are in danger. Your lawyer presents a very good case for you. You are granted free accommodation. You manage to work illegally to earn money. You pay for a stolen National Identity card so you can now work “legally”. You are given Humanitarian protection and stay for up to 3 years. Ideas to help you… You do not go to ask for asylum for over 6 months. You are carrying no identification. You cannot prove that you are in danger. You lie in your interview and are found out. You go to the Citizen’s Advice Bureau and it is closed. You try several charity phone lines but they are busy. You are not allowed to work legally and are running out of money. Your appeal is dismissed and you are sent back to your own country (go back to the start).
