Research Paper On Syrian Refugees Australia

The Australian government is reluctant to take in asylum seekers. Although Australia fully recognises responsibility to admit refugees for resettlement, the government feels that it is spending too much time and money on the issue. The government is already cutting costs towards health and education sectors because Australia is experiencing a downturn in the economic climate. The government is believes that it should not stop supporting its own country just to aid refugees from another country. The government feels as if it needs to look after its own country while still trying to aid asylum seekers. The government will always put above its own nation before trying to help other nations. The government realises that it may have to increase

Situation such as people being assassinated, and families being treated as a form of racism like if they don't have a purpose in this world. This article states that Syrian people are like any other race. All they want is to be successful and live a normal life. Australian government s doing such a fair decision in accepting Syrians and immigrants and finding them a job and let them have the freedom they deserve. In my opinion, Syria is one of the main worst war zones and the population of Syrians is increasing. Australia and Turkey are some of the countries who are making Syrian refugees legal and this article just emphasis that the Syrian population just want to be free and get out of the war, slave zone they live

The prominence in relation to Asylum Seekers and Refugees has become a contemporary issue within Australian society and has amounted vast controversy in the media. A Refugee can be defined as a person who has been forced to leave their country in order to escape war, persecution, or natural disaster as found in the 1951 convention relating to the status of refugees, in which Australia is a signatory to. Every refugee has or will be an asylum seeker. An Asylum Seeker is a person who has left their home country as a political refugee seeking asylum in another but has not had their claim assessed. Asylum seekers have experienced serious breaches of their rights, religious freedom and justice to reach safety. If asylum seekers are found to be

Today 60 million refugees, and asylum seekers are internally displaced . This is almost double what it was 10 years ago. Mega conflicts in Syria and Iraq have displaced millions of people. These are conflicts that are pushing refugees and migrants into flight. The world is in the midst of an unprecedented humanitarian crisis. Yet Australia’s approach in recent years has been to punish people seeking asylum, while increasing the numbers of refugees it resettles. This contrasting approach threatens the long and proud history Australia has of successful integration of refugee communities. This report reflects what we have heard from refugees and people seeking asylum, and the people supporting them. We thank all of the people who contributed to this report. The past two years have been a dramatic and traumatic period for refugees, both at home and abroad. More people are seeking safety – from persecution, conflict, violence and violations of human rights – than at any time since World War II. In the past two years, we have seen lifeless children washing up on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. We have seen ordinary Europeans lining up to help refugees at train stations. We have seen Australians demanding successfully that their leaders let in an extra 12,000 people fleeing the crises in Syria and Iraq.

To begin, Peter Dutton a member of the Australian House of Representatives accounts and accuses these refugees to be ‘illiterate and innumerate.’ This statement deters our racism and our unwelcoming spirit for refugees as a country. Our national anthem suggests a public expression of joy and pride of being Australian, so by not letting refugees into country despite their harrowing experiences - we are saying that we are proud, we are proud of being a country known for ‘exclusion’ and denying of refugee sanctuary, just

For many years refugees have been demonized by the country through the spread of fear and misconception. Furthermore, the disgusting treatment of refugees in the detention camps by the Australian Government has been roundly criticised by the international community.

The first boat with refugees to Australia in 1976, there are five men come to Australia in Darwin by boat (Phillips &Spinks 2013). Australia as a human immigrant country and it has policy receive refugees and asylum seekers. Since more and more refugees entered Australia from all over the world such as Africa, Asia, Europe and Latin America, that the Australia is a multicultural country (UNHCR 2011). There is a small group of people are opposed to refugees, they have prejudice and bias against the refugees (Henderson & Uhlmann 2015). The refugee may face to poor living conditions, they have to leave their home and move to another place which can receive them. Australia is a good choice for refugees due to it can change their life. The small

As mentioned previously, understanding the available services and health care structure within Australia can be difficult for a refugee. Davidson, N., et al. (2004) discussed the difficulties refugees face finding a regular health care provider due to the structure of visa category entitlements provided by the government. This is also compounded by a fundamental distrust of government services within some refugee cultures. Furthermore Correa-Velez, I., et. al (2005) provides more information regarding refugee health policies and access depending on whether they are in an onshore or

Citizens often thought those people would bring terrorists, unemployment and infrastructure stress. However, refugees will be able to make out importance in affecting the potential social, cultural and economic contributionsupon their area of resettlement. Australia has a long history of accepting refugees for resettlement and over 700 000 refugees. As a consequence, Australia’s offshore humanitarian programme is heralded as one of the best in the world. Accepting more refugees and boat people into the country is one of the greatest contributions that can make to improving the world around us and enhancing our own living standards. In addition, by having more people in country there are more people to cooperate with, more people to trade with and more people to grow the market. They help supply the economy through participating in the labour market and bring with them diversity, new work approaches and funds. As our wealth and economy grows there is more money for the finer things in life.

The growing number of displaced persons arising out of the Syrian Civil War in 2011 has become a significant humanitarian crisis on a global scale, with several countries granting asylum to a number of those effected. On the 9th of September 2015, the Australian Government announced that it will make an extra 12,000 humanitarian places available in response to the conflicts in Syria and Iraq, granting them a permanent visa. Australia has been largely criticised by the international community regarding its “special humanitarian" stream identifying those most appropriate for resettlement, but necessarily the most vulnerable people. The approach taken by the Australian Government, alongside the continued sharing of news articles portraying migrants as ‘rapists’ is demonstrative of this heightened sense of popular nationalism identified in contemporary society, stemming from fear tactics, as well as the an increased the sharing of information and opinion via new

How many refugees can take refuge in Australia has become a matter of debate since there are rumours that some of the UNHCR (UN High Commissioner for Refugees) officials are choosing migrants based on the religion and not protection needs.

The resettlement of refugees in Australia is a controversial topic; many people believe that they come here to commit crime, change our culture and steal our jobs. ‘The Happiest Refugee’ has enhanced my belief that refugees should be allowed to live in Australia. I believe that refugees are here to escape war and persecution; they are not criminals, nor do they want to change our culture or steal our jobs. Refugees are generally grateful for their new lives in Australia and they embrace our culture. ‘The Happiest Refugee’ is a source of evidence that supports this.

Syrian refugees aren't allowed to do a lot of things. They aren't allowed to work in neighboring countries. They are refused the same opportunities as the natives. They are forced into refugee camps. They aren't allowed to leave without paying a "sponsor". They are stuck in the middle of the war forced out of their homes with nowhere to go.

Only about 60% had actually made it to Australia while the other 40% had not. Vietnamese migration to Australia is normally described as traumatising. This is due to the fact that the migrants are exposed to a range of situations they had never been in before. These situations range from the harsh living conditions in refugee camps, imbalances to age groups and gender, to separation of family members in the early settlement years. The migrants experienced trauma, severe emotional shock and often the difficultly being accepted once arrived in Australia. Such experiences can leave profound marks on the lives of people and affect the ways in which they later adapt to a new environment. Refugee camps so often generate apathy and dependency. An increase in isolation, self-accusation and doubts can kill off a person's initiative and ability for self-defense and independence. The circumstances of their arrival has meant that refugees have been deprived of their traditional extended family structure; members of nuclear families have been separated and family reunions may not have occurred until months or years later; many teenagers or young adults have had to escape alone. It is a new experience for Vietnamese people to witness such a range of family structures, some of which are not yet generally accepted by the
