Funded Activity Summary
Developing refugee resilience and effective settlement through drama-based interventions. The proposed research will impact on national priorities to assist refugees to better negotiate the settlement experience, develop self-sufficiency and resilience, and engage fully with mainstream society (DIMA, 2006). A positive outcome has significant social and economic ramifications as it will address the disproportionate levels of unemployment in Humanitarian entrants, which currently stands at 13.2 per cent (4.5 per cent for other migrants). The social benefits of an effective approach to working with refugees will be the empowerment to make choices that lead to positive pathways, and thus help individuals to live healthy, productive and fulfilling lives in Australia.Funded Activity Details
