Refugee 101 Learning Module from the IRC

The International Rescue Committee (IRC) has developed an excellent “Refugee 101” learning module for student groups, community groups, or anyone just starting to learn about refugees.  The module provides basic information about who refugees are, how many exist worldwide, and how they are selected for resettlement.  The wealth of information takes about 20 minutes to view, and is accompanied by several self-assessments with immediate feedback.

Check out “Refugee 101” here on the IRC’s Learning Portal.
