‘Unprecedented’
65 million people displaced by war and persecution in 2015 – UN

The number of people displaced
from their homes due to conflict and persecution last year exceeded 60 million
for the first time in the United Nations’ history, a tally greater than the
combined populations of the United Kingdom, or of Canada, Australia and New
Zealand, says a new report released on World Refugee Day today.
The Global
Trends 2015 compiled by the Office of the UN High Commissioner for
Refugees (UNHCR) notes that 65.3 million people were displaced at the end of
2015, an increase of more than 5 million from 59.5 million a year earlier.
The tally comprises 21.3 million
refugees, 3.2 million asylum seekers, and 40.8 million people internally
displaced within their own countries.
Measured against the world’s
population of 7.4 billion people, one in every 113 people globally is now
either a refugee, an asylum-seeker or internally displaced – putting them at a
level of risk for which UNHCR knows no precedent.
On average, 24 people were forced
to flee each minute in 2015, four times more than a decade earlier, when six people
fled every 60 seconds.
Syria, Afghanistan and Somalia
produce half the world’s refugees, at 4.9 million, 2.7 million and 1.1 million,
respectively.
Colombia had the largest numbers
of internally displaced people (IDPs), at 6.9 million, followed by Syria’s 6.6
million and Iraq’s 4.4 million.
While the spotlight last year was
on Europe’s challenge to manage more than one million refugees and migrants who
arrived via the Mediterranean, the report shows that the vast majority of the
world’s refugees were in developing countries in the global south.
In all, 86 per cent of the
refugees under UNHCR’s mandate in 2015 were in low- and middle-income countries
close to situations of conflict. MORE:

"Yes, there is a
protection gap involving climate change refugees, but we don't call them
climate refugees for the reason that they are not covered by the 1951 [Refugee]
Convention," said Marine Franck, a climate change officer at the UN's
refugee agency, UNHCR. That treaty extends only to people who have a
well-founded fear of being persecuted because of race, religion, nationality,
or membership of a social group or political opinion, and are unable, or
unwilling to seek protection from their home countries.
This means that the
estimated 200,000 Bangladeshis who become homeless each
year due to river erosion cannot easily appeal for resettlement in another
country. It also means that the residents of the small islands of
Kiribati, Nauru and Tuvalu, where one in 10 has migrated within the past
decade, can't be classified as refugees, even though those who remain are "trapped" in worsening environmental conditions.

NWA Works to Bring 100 Refugees to NWA

AM CDT
NORTHWEST ARKANSAS - A local group is working to bring refugees
from all over the world to Northwest Arkansas.
One hundred refugees from Iraq, Syria and Central Africa are
expected to arrive in NWA sometime this fall. Canopy NWA is
the group working to bring these people to NWA.
Director Emily Linn says this is a new community led initiative
started by a group of Arkansans. The group receives federal funding to help
refugees.
Linn said the U.S. State Department decides on the refugees who
will come into the country. The State Department then works with nine
resettlement agencies to find housing and assistance for those refugees.
Canopy NWA is a part of the second largest agency; The
Lutheran Immigrant and Refugee Service.
"We have a case manager who kind of works them through this
process of getting them on their feet over the course of three months. So that
involves getting them signed up for any benefits like welfare they might be
eligible for to kind of help them starting out," Linn said.
Linn said the group will help the refugees find apartments, get
social security cards and enroll them in cultural orientation courses. She said
the federal government regulates the process all the way down to how many forks
and spoons are in each apartment.

A Play
and a Diary
RESCUING REFUGEES: A Stranger, a
Friend, Countries, Jesus;
“SON” AND ANNE FRANK: REFUGEES WWII AND TODAY by Dick Bennett (Oct. 2016)
For many reasons having refugees on my mind
in 2016 (UN: 65 million displaced persons), I saw in a new light a reading of a
new play, “War Mother,” by Adolphe Nissenholc, and a production of a new play
based upon Anne Frank’s diaries.
Nissenholc’s play, brought to UAF by Frank Scheide (accompanied by the author), is based upon his childhood experience when he was given to a foster family by his mother just before they were to be deported to Auschwitz. Only young Adolphe and an uncle survived from his family. Now dead, both natural and foster mothers (and the father), contend over the son. Who will the now old son follow into the afterlife? The story of Anne Frank is widely familiar--finding refuge in 1942 from Nazi extermination in an attic in Amsterdam, until finally discovered and gassed in Auschwitz.
Nissenholc’s play, brought to UAF by Frank Scheide (accompanied by the author), is based upon his childhood experience when he was given to a foster family by his mother just before they were to be deported to Auschwitz.

The story of Anne Frank is widely familiar--finding refuge in 1942 from Nazi extermination in an attic in Amsterdam, until finally discovered and gassed in Auschwitz.
To many viewers, like me the plays
connect immediately to the refugees of today seeking safety from wars,
occupations, and cruel consequences. So it is no surprise that an
article in The New York Times related Anne to a Syrian
girl. Specifically, Otto Frank applied for visas to the U.S. before he
took his family into hiding, and he was not granted them.
Similarly, regrettably, while Canada recently brought 25,000 Syrians to safety
in their country, the US has only very recently received 10,000, though it has
now promised to bring more. Germany has taken one million.
Rev. Lowell Grisham explains Jesus’ expanded
definition of “neighbor” in the Good Samaritan story, the meaning of the Cross
in Jesus’ embrace of all the “brokenness of the human condition,” God’s love
“extending to all humanity,” and much more, including the fundamental role of
empathy. Lowell Grisham. “Loving Our Enemies.” NADG (10-4-16).

More
than 65 million people have fled their homes and risked their lives in search
of refuge. Most are children, but less than half have access to education. The United Nations Association of the United
States of America, in tandem with the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) and its
fundraising arm USA for UNHCR, is working to prevent a lost generation by
giving refugee children the education they need to build a better future.

Patrick Strickland. “A Four-Star Response to the Refugee
Crisis.” In These Times (July 2017).
Athens’ City Plaza Hotel, six years
empty, now bustles with hundreds of refugees who fled from Syria, Iraq,
Afghanistan, and other warring nations and are on their way to permanent
settlement. The Solidarity Initiative
for Political and Economic Refugees took over the closed hotel in April 2016 as
an alternative to squatting, and since then it has housed “some 1,500 refugees
and migrants.” They are given
considerable autonomy compared to the typical NGO or government camps, the author
writes. –D/
