Citizens of Nowhere: From Refugee Camp to Canadian Campus ReviewThe local University was in the process of bringing in 2 Sudanese Refugees to enrol and I was referred to read this book. The stories are spellbinding and very revealing of who these students are... the hardships, obstacles and home sickness. Truly a wonderful story that should be told to everyone. Bring more "needles in the ocean" to our Universities and we both benefit. They get the hand up they need and we learn of a culture, way of life we would not know. Great story, well written - highly recommended.Citizens of Nowhere: From Refugee Camp to Canadian Campus OverviewAn inspiring story of courage, adaptation and determinaton — a year in the life of 11 refugee students entering universities across Canada."Most journalists have stories they never forget. This is mine."When Debi Goodwin travelled to the Dadaab Refugee Camp in 2007 to shoot a documentary on young Somali refugees soon coming to Canada, she did not anticipate the impact the journey would have on her. A year later, in August of 2008, she decided to embark upon a new journey, starting in the overcrowded refugee camps in Kenya, and ending in university campuses across Canada. For a year, she recorded the lives of eleven very lucky refugee students who had received coveted scholarships from Canadian universities, guaranteeing them both a spot in the student body and permanent residency in Canada. We meet them in the overcrowded confines of a Kenyan refugee camp and track them all the way through a year of dramatic and sometimes traumatic adjustments to new life in a foreign country called Canada. This is a snapshot of a refugee's first year in Canada, in particular a snapshot of young men and women lucky and smart enough to earn their passage from refugee camp to Canadian campus.From the Hardcover edition.
