▼ Little or no research has focused upon how different factors combine to influence the refugee integration experience of urban refugees living in Addis Ababa. This is particularly true for refugees originating from a relatively distant land such as the GLR. Nevertheless, there is little research into the lives of such refugees. Hence, my research is exploratory looking into the social integration process and livelihood of GLR urban refugee women. Considering the smaller number of GLR urban refugees, purposive sampling was used. One FGD with a group of nine refugees and two key informant interviews as well as qualitative open-ended questionnaires were used to do the research distributed to eight refugees. Moreover, officers working in the ARRA, UNHCRBO, DICAC and JRS were consulted /interviewed and responded to questions emailed to them. Data organization followed the data collection. The analysis was made in light of the research questions and objectives as well as the hypothesis produced at the start of the research work. Interviews with key informants and the recorded FGD were transcribed. I sorted out the issues which I thought were recurrently mentioned in the FGD, the open-ended questionnaire replies as well as the key informant interviews. The analysis continued with some sort of conclusion for each sub-topic discussed. The findings of this study have shown that GLR refugees living in Addis Ababa have to face challenges in their attempt to become socially integrated. Refugees of the GLR face different challenges and barriers and in many cases are less advantageous compared to their counterparts living in camps. Difficulties in learning Amharic have often made it difficult for GLR refugees to communicate with the host community which leads to less socialization. When coupled with language and cultural differences, and the lack of work permit, GLR refugee women are left in a vulnerable situation. In such situation, securing self reliance is nearly impossible. For many they have to rely on humanitarian assistance. Advisors/Committee Members: Dr. GetachewKassa (advisor).

▼ This thesis probes three texts to explore pathways between narration and refugee voices. In Dave Eggers’ text What is the What (2008), the words ‘novel’ and ‘autobiography’ on the title page set a framework for an exploration of the displacement of both genres. As Achak Deng, the Sudanese refugee-exile claims to have “gone out in search of a writer,” so this thesis has sought textual manifestations of the voices of those labeled “refugees”. In Eggers’text a temporarily-gagged narrator presents the question as to how the writer-refugee collaboration allows the voice of a refugee to be heard. In Little Liberia: an African Odyssey in New York (2011), Jonny Steinberg’s placement of himself inside the text demonstrates a different narrative approach to this question as he opts to share subject-space with refugee-exiles, Rufus Arkoi and Jacob Massaquoi. Unsettling the idea of ‘protagonist’, the text challenges borders between story and history, telling and writing. Through a narrative relationship Steinberg probes acts of recounting, listening, reviewing in the routes he takes to the text eventually written. By contrast, Luxurious Hearses, a novella by Uwem Akpan, places the extreme fate of the refugee-protagonist in the hands of a third-person narrator to wrestle with the distinctions between voice, mediation and representation. Through Jubril and his co-commuters, the text investigates forms of “rupture” (Bakhtin, 2000) that occur when identities are opportunistically exposed to social labeling. Writer, reader and displaced person emerge as subjects of an economic framework which positions them within the powerful confines of terms such as citizen, refugee, exile. Said’s affirming insight thus presents a challenge to all on this continuum to “cross borders, (to) break barriers of thought and experience” (Said, 2000:185). Reading the text then becomes associated with interpreting events through the collaborative work of relating, and through reviewing the frames of reference. This thesis examines narrative approaches to refugee voices with the question ‘How do voice and narration inflect the transitions in these texts involving refugees?" Rather than the easy transference this may seem to involve, acts of entrusting the timbre of such stories to texts require political vigilance and a sensibility cognizant that a globalized environment implicates all in the crises creating refugees.

▼ Only twenty or fewer countries in the world, including NZ, provide resettlement opportunities for United Nation High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR)-mandated refugees. Guided by the UNHCR case-referred policy, 250 Sudanese refugees have come to be resettled in New Zealand; mainly from the Kakuma Refugee Camp (KRC) in Kenya. Yet not very much is known about Sudanese refugees’ experiences in the KRC and how they have impacted on resettlement outcomes in New Zealand. This study used a qualitative methodology to document the impact of KRC-lived experiences of 20 Sudanese refugees on their resettlement outcomes in New Zealand. The study explored four stages of participants’ experiences: (1) pre-conflict experiences in South Sudan; (2) their journey to the refugee camp; (3) experiences in the KRC and (4) impact of their experiences on their resettlement in New Zealand. The picture that emerges is that the refugee camp-lived experience is under-studied and there is a need to understand it in order to develop informed specialist services. The findings suggest pre-conflict life was good. However, throughout their journey to and years of stay in the KRC, participants faced severe food shortages, water scarcity, concerns for personal safety and poor health conditions. In New Zealand they faced cultural and climate shock, difficulties in learning English, lack of employment struggles, placement in insensitive neighbourhoods, inability to bring in family members, mental health issues and suicide, and an advanced patient-led secular health system; all of which were a challenge for refugees. Recommendations from this study include: conducting a social and mental health audit in the refugee communities; prioritising family reunification over the UNHCR quota; formulating pathways for skill development and careers; providing specialist budgetary services to help refugees avoid loan scheme traps; and discussing the pros and cons of resettlement location with refugees before their decision to resettle. In addition, the Ministry of Education needs to support refugee students to focus on academic progression as well as on the social integration in the school system, by seeking refugee community input into schooling of their children in New Zealand schools.

▼ Background: There is emerging evidence of an "intergenerational impact of war" (Betancourt et al., 2015) among conflict-affected families. However, research on parental and family-level variables that may mediate the relationship between caregiver and child mental health remains scarce. The objective of this DPhil thesis is to elucidate the role of parenting in the transgenerational transmission of war-related trauma and adversity, and investigate the variables that influence parental mental health and parenting behaviour during displacement. Results will provide a theoretical and empirical basis for further development of parenting and psychosocial interventions for Syrian refugees in Lebanon. Methods: This DPhil thesis is comprised of three interrelated papers from a mixed methods study examining the intergenerational impact of war. The qualitative component of the thesis (DPhil Paper 1) consists of group and individual interviews with Syrian refugee parents (n=39) and children (n=15) in Lebanon. Interviews were transcribed and analysed using a grounded theory approach to examine the pathways linking the effects of war and displacement to parenting and child adjustment. The quantitative component of the thesis (DPhil Papers 2 and 3) consists of a cross-sectional survey with Syrian refugee mothers in Lebanon (n=291). In DPhil Paper 2, structural equation modelling is used to test a conceptual model linking mothers' exposure to war and daily stressors to maternal mental health problems, harsh parenting, and child psychosocial difficulties. DPhil Paper 3 examines the role of mothers' perceived social support in promoting their psychological and parenting resilience, defined as better than expected mental health and parenting behaviour given level of exposure to war trauma. Psychological and parenting resilience are operationalised using the residual approach, which assesses the difference between mothers' actual score on mental health and harsh discipline measures, and the score predicted by their level of trauma exposure. Linear regression models are used to test for associations between mothers' perceived social support and their psychological and parenting resilience. Results: In DPhil Paper 1, qualitative results show three interrelated pathways linking daily displacement stressors to different dimensions of parenting. First, economic hardship prevents parents from meeting their children's basic needs and forces adaptation strategies that impair positive parent-child interactions; second, parental psychological distress contributes to harsh parenting; and third, perceptions and experiences of insecurity in the community result in increased parental control. Greater economic resources and social support emerged as potential protective factors for maintaining positive parenting despite exposure to war and displacement-related adversity. In DPhil Paper 2, results from the structural equation model show that greater exposure to war-related events is directly associated with increased maternal…

▼ The word 'refugee', more often than not, conjures up notions of poor, destitute, malnourished children, standing shoeless in refugee camps throughout Africa. When explaining to people that I was working with refugees in Bangkok, the most common and immediate response, from international development workers to Thai nationals, was, "I didn't even know refugees lived in Bangkok?" When I went on to inform them that I was working with Palestinian-Syrian refugees, the responses often varied between incredulity to something bordering on shock. Some went as far as to ask me if I was certain; perhaps I had meant something else, "Surely, there are no Syrians in Bangkok." Indeed, many hundreds of Palestinian-Syrians, in addition to many hundreds of Syrian nationals, drove across the border into Lebanon, boarded airplanes in Beirut and flew to Bangkok in order to flee conflict and seek asylum. An increasing number of refugees and asylum seekers are escaping conflict and persecution from numerous African, Middle Eastern and South Asian countries in order to find refuge, ultimately pursuing third country resettlement in Southeast Asia. With the continued instability in many countries in these regions, this trend is not only likely to continue, but to intensify. Facing a lack of legal protections upon arrival in most Southeast Asian cities, refugees from all nations are forced to live in extremely insecure and tenuous circumstances. In Bangkok, refugees and asylum seekers are in constant fear of indefinite detainment, extortion, and harassment. They lack the right to work, rent housing, obtain an education, and in many cases are unable to access proper health care. With over 50 per cent of the world's displaced persons now living in urban areas, the current attitudes and policies towards refugees must certainly shift to adequately address the situation. However, our depth of knowledge about these urban populations is still superficial. While the field of urban refugee research is now growing, data and information is incomplete. In order to survive, refugees are forced to live a life hidden in plain sight; due to this, it is impossible to begin to understand the scale of the issue, let alone the vast array of experiences of those seeking refuge in urban spaces. In Bangkok, how individuals are able to survive, sustain a livelihood and cope is unknown to most researchers, international and national nongovernmental organisations (INGOs and NGOs), and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). It is this gap in knowledge that has driven this research. I lived for two years in Bangkok volunteering my nights and evenings with a small NGO that works with refugees in the city. I was also an employee of a UN agency and worked in the United Nations compound where I regularly interacted with employees of UNHCR. Through these experiences I came to discover this gaping hole in knowledge, which was worsened by the 'arm's length' culture of the UNHCR, NGOs, and INGOs in Bangkok. Overall, these organisations did not understand how…

▼ The Refugee Resettlement situation on Manus Island in Papua New Guinea is in dire need of a humane intervention. The Manus Island Detention Centre was officially permanently closed on the 31st of October 2017 (ABC News), leaving 600 men with three options; moving back to their countries of origin, relocating to the East Lorengau Refugee Transit Centre or moving and resettling in the United States of America on the basis that they get granted refugee status. The option of relocating to the East Lorengau Refugee Transit Centre may seem like a viable option to the Australian state but to the 600 men it's a move that would render them vulnerable and in danger. Relocating to the transit centre will only cause more overcrowding and depletion of the already scarce resources. The living conditions of the Manus Island Detention Centrefor refugees and asylum seekers was deemed harsh and inhumane. The conditions of East Lorengau Refugee Transit Centre are no different. The lack of bare essentials in these refugee camps such as a constant source of clean water, food, healthcare and accommodation has led to health and psychosocial problems amongst its inmates and if left unaddressed it will worsen further. This has resulted in the refugees becoming increasingly dependent on the Australian and Papua New Guinean states – which treats the centre as a state of exemption. This situation and their isolation from society has also contributed to disempowering the refugees who are increasingly unable to function in day to day life and experiencing difficulty integrating into the Manusian society. This thesis will address this crisis architecturally; its intention is to explore architecture as a medium that will orchestrate the development of better and empowering living opportunities for the refugees and facilitate a sense of community within the Manusian society via a holistic community model. The objective of the model is to firstly enable the refugees to become self-sufficient where they don't have to rely on the resources provided from external sources as the Papua New Guinean and Australian state. Secondly the intention is tofacilitate community integrationby creating opportunities for the refugees and the locals to interact through shared and mutually beneficial opportunities. By developing a sense of community and reliability between the locals and refugees; both parties engaging in a traditional Papua New Guinean practice of Kastam (Otto T.), based on exchange, supportiveness, respect and honour. The thesis aims to test and readdress, through an exploration of architectural principals related to exchange and resilience, the stigma and ideology of refugee resettlement―by moving away from the idea of refugees as reliant on the states that govern them, to the refugees becoming self-sufficient and thereby becoming less of a burdenand more of an asset to the host community.

▼ Somalia has undergone a prolonged period of civil war, lawlessness and turmoil, which has resulted in many people becoming displaced, and a number of those displaced people have migrated to New Zealand as refugees. This thesis is a study of communication and collaboration between Somali refugee families and their children’s schools in Christchurch, New Zealand in the light of their experiences pre and post-resettlement in New Zealand. This was to take into account recommendations of the UNHCR Handbook for best practice. Informed by interviews with 40 Somali parents, 15 Somali secondary students, two school principals, and 15 teachers, the thesis examines collaboration with schools in the context of the families’ experiences in their home country, the flight process, the refugee camps and the migration and resettlement in New Zealand. Data were gathered using questionnaires, individual interviews, focus groups, observation, and document analysis, and subjected to a qualitative analysis. The study revealed a remarkable degree of heterogeneity among Somali refugee families who have been settling in Christchurch over fourteen years. Many diverse factors were identified such as gender, previous socio-economic status, urban versus rural origins, level of English language, poverty, employable work skills, and refugee experiences such as the level of trauma, all of which have impacted on the capacity of individuals and families to adjust during their resettlement. Many refugees were identified as having undergone major trauma during the civil war and refugee flight process. These experiences have affected the integration of many into their new society, but this study found that those with the greatest apparent level of recognised need and vulnerability were those with the poorest communication skill. This resulted in their having a poor relationship with schools and left them quite alienated. For many such families the only interface with their local school was being summoned to discuss the infractions of their children and any subsequent disciplinary measures. Therefore, one of the greatest needs to improve communication and collaboration was identified as the ability to learn the English language. Other barriers to successful communication and collaboration included issues associated with racism, cultural awareness, teacher workload, lack of acknowledgement of refugees’ special needs in school policies, teachers’ low expectations of refugee parents, intimidating school environments, ambiguous information, the Somali oral culture, parents’ financial hardship, parents’ lack of transport, parents’ workload, inadequate housing and the families’ high mobility. There are currently neither national policies nor adequate resources to facilitate refugees improving their English language skills, nor to support schools in other aspects of their communication and collaboration with refugee families, and this study suggests that the absence of guidelines and resourcing is another key factor behind the poor engagement…

▼ BACKGROUND: On World TB Day 2016, CDC reported an increase in number of US tuberculosis (TB) cases in 2015, the first time in 23 years. TB is the largest cause of mortality from any bacterial disease worldwide, with 95% of cases and deaths in low and middle-income countries, where it remains endemic. The recent increase in US TB cases highlights the fact that TB is a global issue, thus requiring a global effort to achieve elimination, with particular focus on active TB and Latent TB Infection (LTBI) identification and treatment among populations at high risk. The refugee population requires particular attention, considering TB disproportionately afflicts refugees and there are more refugees worldwide today than in the past 20 years. Georgia is among the top 10 US states for refugee arrivals, with majority resettling in DeKalb County, approximately 90% in 2010. There is a lack of data on TB rates among these populations and effects of implementation of the 2007 expanded CDC Technical Instructions on imported TB and LTBI reactivation. OBJECTIVES: (1) Estimate and compare TB disease incidence rates among refugee, other foreign-born, and US-born populations in DeKalb County from 2004 to 2015 (2) Determine refugee TB case contribution to total DeKalb County TB case burden (3) Examine possible trends in number of cases diagnosed ≤ 6 months of US entry, among refugee and other foreign-born persons screened overseas before and after implementation of 2007 expanded CDC Technical Instructions. METHODS: Retrospective study on all new TB cases diagnosed in DeKalb County during 2004-2015. Due to the lack of data on refugee population estimates along with the dynamic nature of this population, three different annual incidence rates were calculated for refugees and other FB. Participant characteristics were compared using chi-square tests and univariate analyses to identify significant differences between groups. Logistic regression was used to model change in number of TB diagnoses ≤ 6 months of US entry against implementation status (pre vs. post) and immigration status (refugee vs. other-FB). RESULTS: From 2004 to 2015, a total of 898 active TB cases were diagnosed in DeKalb County; 569 total foreign-born (144 refugees and 425 other foreign-born) and 329 US-born. Age, race/ethnicity, TB verification type, HIV status, and previous TB diagnosis were found to have significant differences between groups (p < 0.05). Throughout the study period, the highest TB incidence rate was among refugees followed by other FB, and drastically lower rates among US-born. There were significantly more diagnoses ≤ 6 months of US entry among post vs pre-implementation, OR: 2.784 (95% CI: 1.683 – 4.606). Refugee vs. other-FB, OR: 5.103 (95% CI: 3.085 – 8.442). Majority of cases with prior B1 classification (83.6%) were diagnosed ≤ 6 of US entry, which is considered to be possible imported TB, While (90.9%) persons with Class B2, although few, were diagnosed ≤ 6 months of US entry, which suggests possible LTBI… Advisors/Committee Members: Gerardo Chowell, Alawode Oladele.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT : Gender-related violence is a global pandemic affecting millions of women worldwide. Yet, in many instances, states continue to tolerate and indirectly condone the various forms that it takes. In cases where the gender-related violence amounts to persecution because of its severity and the lack of state protection, victims are left with a drastic solution: to flee and seek refuge in another country. However, international refugee law, as one of the final mechanisms to protect basic human rights, has proved to be inadequate to provide sufficient protection for victims of gender-related persecution. This dissertation argues that the definition of ‘refugee’ under international refugee law is obsolete and in dire need of reconceptualisation in order to adequately encompass the unique persecution that women face because of their gender. Therefore, this dissertation seeks to establish the reasons behind the inadequate protection of victims of gender-related persecution. To examine this question, the dissertation carries out a detailed analysis of various aspects that have an impact on the interpretation and implementation of the international refugee law framework. As a result of this analysis, the dissertation demonstrates how the historical events that took place at the time of the drafting of the main international refugee law instruments impacted their substance and resulted in a heavily androcentric focus. Similarly, this dissertation reveals how the patriarchal nature of the international law regime as a whole has had a negative impact on gender-related asylum claims. Moreover, it discloses the asylum adjudicators’ gender-biased construction of ‘persecution’ and analyses the difficult fit between gender-related persecution and the nexus requirement under the 1951 Refugee Convention. Furthermore, this dissertation takes the important step of examining the manners in which the current protection afforded by international refugee law to victims of gender-related persecution can be improved and developed, and it analyses best practices. Ultimately, based on this in-depth analysis, this dissertation’s key contribution to the field of international refugee law is the identification of the emerging recognition of gender as an independent category of persecution to the existing ‘refugee’ definition. This addition will have a fundamental impact on the gender-equal application of international refugee law and, importantly, on the protection of women’s human rights worldwide

AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING : Geslagsgebaseerde geweld is ‘n wêreldwye pandemie wat miljoene vroue affekteer. Dog word hierdie probleem deur vele state verdra en selfs indirek gekondoneer. In sulke gevalle waar hierdie geweld tot vervolging lei as gevolg van die erns daarvan, sowel as die gebrek aan staatsbeskerming daarteen, het dit ‘n drastiese impak op die slagoffers. Hulle beste oplossing is dikwels om uit hul land te vlug en asiel in ander lande te probeer bekom. Die internasionale reg van toepassing op vlugtelinge as een van die…

▼ By now scholars, practitioners, government officials and others in the global community have witnessed a number of countries and their populations going through extreme destruction and trying to rebuild in the aftermath. Country case studies are invaluable for their in-depth, continuous look at how a nation-state collective and the individuals who make up that collective recover, regroup, develop, but also remain very harmed for a long time. They must live among and beside their former enemies. Studies of the resettlement of refugees in a third country offer a different view: there are varied populations arriving with different socio-cultural and economic histories and experiences, and different definitions of a normalcy to which they aspire. They are in a setting that is much different than what characterized their pre-war experiences, and they do not have to rebuild out of ashes in the place that they were born. Refugees from various countries resettling in a third country have so much in common with each other from the experience of extreme violence and having to resettle in a foreign land that one key informant suggested that we think about a "refugee ethnicity." Though they would not have wished for them, they have gained numerous new identification possibilities not available to those in the country of origin: U.S. citizen, hybrid, diaspora, cosmopolitan global citizen; refugee/former refugee survivors. But the "fit" of these identities vary, because the receiving society may perceive individuals and families along a continuum of belonging vs. "othering." In the post-9-11 era in the U.S., the "belonging" as a citizen and member of the imagined community of the nation that a refugee or former refugee is able to achieve may be precarious. Will refugees resettling turn out to be vectors of socio-political disease, infecting the new host? Or will they be vectors of development and agents of host revitalization as they realize adversity-activated development in a new environment? The U.S. "host environment" has changed considerably since the modern era of resettlement began in the 1970s and then passed through the dramatic incidents of 9-11. The "hosts" have now also undergone an experience of extreme political violence. U.S. institutions are responding to the events and subsequent wars, and have themselves been changed as they adjust practices and policies in response to the trauma experienced by the people they are meant to serve. Much is in play. The times beg for a better understanding of refugees' social experiences of resettlement in a new country, the forms of suffering and marginalization they face, and the healing processes in which they engage. We need a far better understanding of what it takes to assist refugees as they work to re-constitute social networks, recover economically, find opportunity and meaning, pursue goals, and - with receiving communities – express solidarity across social dividing lines. This dissertation calls out this problematic; and analyzes it at the multi-stakeholder site of… Advisors/Committee Members: Nichter, Mark (advisor), Deubel, Tara (committeemember), Baro, Mamadou (committeemember), Nichter, Mimi (committeemember), Nichter, Mark (committeemember).

▼ How well immigrants and refugees adjust to Canadian society is critical for their well-being and integration. Using an acculturation development framework and emphasizing a process-oriented and strength-based approach, this dissertation reports on three papers related to immigrant and refugee adjustment, education, and acculturation in Canada. In the first paper, I drew on ethnographic methodology to examine the school engagement of newcomer Somali parents and the ways in which engagement was facilitated in a school-based transition program. I collected multiple types of data including field notes, meeting notes, 19 individual interviews with program stakeholders (teachers, after-school staff, cultural brokers, program leadership, and representatives from immigrant serving organizations), and one group interview with 13 Somali mothers. Results showed that parental engagement was limited due to language-related barriers, dissimilar cultural and educational expectations, practical, resettlement, and social barriers. These barriers were successfully addressed in the program through various strategies including cultural brokering services and parent information meetings. In the second paper, I used the same ethnographic methodology to examine the school adjustment experiences of recently arrived Somali and Ethiopian adolescents with limited formal schooling. Field notes were recorded and interviews were conducted with 11 adolescents, 8 of their teachers, and 12 after-school/settlement staff working closely with the adolescents during their early transition years. Results highlighted the social-emotional, acculturation, and academic needs of newcomer adolescent refugees, as well as their strengths. In the third paper, I used a method of interpretive description to compare the bicultural experiences and competencies of first- and second-generation immigrants and refugees who have lived in Canada for a longer period of time and have experienced positive acculturation outcomes. Focus groups were conducted with eight first-generation and eight second-generation youth and adults. Results showed that both generations experienced acculturation challenges and developed similar bicultural competencies; however, the second generation experienced unique challenges within family and heritage peer networks. Together, the findings highlight some of the difficulties immigrants and refugees face when navigating two cultures and the need for educational supports that take into consideration their social-emotional and acculturation challenges and acknowledge their cultural capital, aspirations, and pre-migration knowledge.
