Running from Hell:Afghanistan Resettlement

What is a Refugee?

IDP vs. Refugee

IDP stands for Internally Displaced Person.The biggest difference is the fact that an

refugee crosses international borders. IDPs try to find safeness and security in their

own land. Both refugees and IDPs are entitled to the

same rights as destination country’s citizens.

Afghanistan: The Battle Ground

Families flee due to faction created conflicts.Leadership shifts create new systems, which

don’t always support the past citizens.

Violence consumesthe country itsalmost like theonly method ofcommunication.

Cause of Resettlement

Life of a Refugee

Refugees are supposed to be given housing, food, clothing, and medical upon arrival to their new land.

Many whom wish to return to their native land usually can’t, because of ongoing turmoil.

Afghani refugees are at times turned away from countries due over crowding.

Many refugees live in tents in sectioned camp areas. Disease, poverty, and hopelessness rules these areas.
