Here & There – Connecting schools
to everywhere
Thank you to the schools around Australia who registered and submitted entries to take part in the Australia for UNHCR and Skype real-time video cross with students in Nakivale. We are pleased to announce that the winning entry was from Killara High School, in Sydney, NSW. View their submission.
The program, developed by Australia for UNHCR as a global pilot in partnership with UNHCR’s global partner Skype to provide connection and foster understanding between young people living very different lives.
In a real-time video cross on 21st September 2011, Australian students will talk with young refugee students from a secondary school in the Nakivale Refugee Settlement supported by Australian donors through Australia for UNHCR. They will gain a unique insight into each other's lives while exploring their shared interests in areas like music and sport.
