The Sydney Morning Herald has recently produced a visually engaging slideshow on the resettlement process of Sudanese refugees in Sydney. The slideshow, which comprises a series of black and white images, explores the life of a family that escaped the bloodshed and violence in Darfur and recounts their experiences of integrating into a new suburban culture in Sydney.

The slideshow can be found by clicking the following link to the Sydney Morning Herald Website: Fractured Families, Sydney Morning Herald, 27 February 2008

Amnesty International supports the resettlement of refugees from Sudan and is calling upon the Australian government to increase its humanitarian intake programme.
