Cambodian refugee Chanden Chance will share her story of immigrating to the United States with her parents to escape the Khmer Rouge. Former Peace Corps Volunteer and filmmaker Karin Muller will talk about her experience living and filming in a Sudanese refugee camp and show clips from her documentary. We will then break into small discussion circles to consider how to respond to refugees and displaced persons in our changing global community.
