Not Available. Past Classes(Clicking a class title will bring you to the course's section of the corresponding course catalog)S4935: What if you had to walk to Germany? in Splash Spring 2016 (Apr. 09 - 10, 2016)
The civil war in Syria is one of the worst humanitarian crises of our time. More than 10 million people have been displaced and more than 200,000 people have died as a direct result of the five-year conflict that has shown no signs of abating. The United Nations Children's Fund, or UNICEF, has been heavily involved in relief efforts for the crisis: increasing access to quality health care, promoting non-discriminatory access to education and strengthening national child protection systems. In this class, we will learn about UNICEF & its missions, the Syrian refugee crisis and about what you can do to contribute to the cause. Through videos, presentations and discussions, we will come to know of the severity of the crisis and the critical state of millions who fight to stay alive each day. The power you hold to create positive, disruptive change in this world is not trivial; it is our hope that with the knowledge you gain from this class, you will harness that power in whatever capacity you can to change the lives of the millions of refugees waiting for a brighter day.
