Firms would benefit from employing refugees in appropriate jobs if there wa
2007-06-22 12:26:00 Employers need to have access to improved information that demonstrates the benefits of employing refugee workers, research has found. A study by Progress GB, a partnership aiming to address barriers to employment for refugees and migrants, found they could play a more significant role in the labour market. Information should be made available to UK employers, including examples of good practice, and support in sorting out documentation requirements to encourage employment of refugees. The research also suggested a national scheme for work experience is needed to help integrate refugees into the labour market. Jane Watts, Progress GB project manager, said: ?Refugees often need extra support in finding work that is appropriate to their previous experience and qualifications. That support needs to take into account all their needs and should be intensive, timely, and provided over months rather than weeks.?

Angelina Jolie slams West for barring refugees

High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), for whom she is a goodwill ambassador.She expressed outrage at a photo which appeared recently in the quarterly magazine, taken on an unidentified Mediterranean beach in Spain in 2002, which showed a couple relaxing under an umbrella not far from the washed-up corpse of a black man.“We’ll never know who he was or why he ended up there and the couple on the beach apparently couldn’t care less,” Jolie wrote. “Someone’s son, someone’s brother, or someone’s loved one.

Jordan and Syria are hosting the majority of the more than two million Iraqi refugees that are scattered across the Middle East. Hundreds of thousands more have fled to Iran, Lebanon, Egypt, Turkey and the Gulf States. Another two million are displaced within Iraq.

Rumble: Palestinians: Refugees for Life.
2007-06-04 20:10:00 Warning: this piece is highly opinionated. It is nevertheless my honest opinion. My impression of the reality, my interpretation of the facts, and my reflection on the state of affairs. Mine only.Today:Today's headlines: "Mortar strike wounds Israeli troups", "Lebanon camp offensive continues!", "Seven US soldiers killed in Iraq"... The Middle East... How did we ever let it come this far?In a previous post, I stated that today, 5.7 million people in the world were long term refugees. That excluded the Palestinians. 4.3 million Palestinians have been "Refugees for Life" since 1948. 4.3 million... That is about the whole population of Norway. Or half of New York city.Since 1948, time and again, the "Palestinian Issue" became front page news. An excellent historic overview, you find in this summary. But have a look also at the UNRWA overview of the issue, which includes a lot of pictorial data.According to me, the "Palestinian Issue" has been at the basis of most conflicts in the Midd...
Rumble: Refugees for Life
2007-06-03 19:55:00 My friend E. commented in one of my previous posts: "Some groups have been refugees for so long (for example, the Palestinians in Lebanon have been displaced for almost 40 years) that people (including yourself) have already 'forgotten' their plight. Did we all become immune or saturated already?"And she is right. Read this article: "Protracted refugee situations: Millions caught in limbo, with no solutions in sight".While worldwide refugee numbers have fallen to their lowest level in 25 years, a larger percentage of asylum-seekers are spending a longer time in exile in an often-overlooked plight of subsistence living in a virtual state of limbo. Excluding the Palestinians, they account for 5.7 million of the world's 9.2 million refugees.The root causes of long-standing refugee populations stem from the very states whose instability engenders chronic regional insecurity. Most of the refugees in these regions - be they Somalis, Sudanese, Burundians or Burmese - come from countries...
