These are cards that I used for my last refugee camp. If you want to go with this idea, I can easily adjust to make them relevant to the countries that you want to focus on. Susan United Nations Cards When students entered the Refugee Camp, they were given a card that had their real name and a refugee scenario on it. We used these cards at the beginning of the camp to teach the students about where refugees come from, why they became refugees, and some of the hardships that refugees deal with each day. Students were not allowed any supplies without showing their refugee card (as is the case in UN camps). To use these cards, simply add in the names of the students and teachers participating in your Refugee Camp, photocopy onto card and distribute.
