This Planet Teacher topic looks at the issue of refugees.

It is based on the stories of Zamira from Kosovo, now living in the UK; Dak from Sudan, who had to flee from his village to escape the brutality of government forces, and is now living in another part of the country; and Bumeh who is living in a refugee camp on the Thai Burmese border.
