The theme this year is \u2018Courage\u2019.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Refugee Week<\/a> is an annual arts and cultural festival to celebrate the positive contribution of refugees to our society, raise awareness and provide a platform for people to share their experiences.<\/p>\n

According to the World Health Organization<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe experience of migration is a key determinant of health and well-being. Refugees and migrants remain among the most vulnerable members of society faced often with xenophobia; discrimination; poor living, housing, and working conditions; and inadequate access to health services, despite frequently occurring physical and mental health problems.\u201d<\/p>\n

The library has put out a display of books in our main reading room on subjects relevant to migration and refugee health and well-being. You can search for library resources using the library\u2019s search tool, Discover<\/a>.<\/p>\n
