Description
Join us for the launch of Our Stories.
Our Stories features the stories of four refugees building a new life in Australia. Alpha, Shabnam, David and Aya each arrived in Australia at a different time and from different ethnic, cultural and religious backgrounds. Our Stories explores our common humanity and highlights both the common and unique challenges faced by our newest Australians.
In partnership with Cool Australia we have developed teacher resources for Years 8 and 9, which guide students through a series of scenarios based on the experiences of our storytellers. We hope these lessons will inspire young Australians to consider their attitudes towards refugees and take positive action to foster respect among their peers and create a more inclusive and tolerant multicultural society.
