TASK 1
Refugees are people which belong from some other part of the world but are living in a
different country for some reason. Thus, for the supporting these individuals some authorities
like International Rescue Committee and many other can communicate, there are certain ways in
which that can be suggested Mishori, Aleinikoff, & Davis (2017). It's been many centuries from
when the refugee movements have been very prominent. Due to reasons like religion and racial
intolerance refugees have travelled lots of places in the world and during different eras. Some
examples of their movement were noticed during the Korean war (1950-53), Cuban revolution
(1959) and also Chinese take over of Tibet (1959) The Editors of Encyclopaedia Britannica,
(2021). All of these resulted in the involuntary movement of refugees from places different
places. They have to leave every they owned to settle in a place which will be new to them.
Asylum seeker is a person who claims that they are refugee but their claim has not been
evaluated yet. Therefore, an Asylum seeker is not a resident until their request is pending.
Therefore, it can be said that every refugee is initially an asylum seeker, but not all refugees are
asylum seekers. These people are the ones which have to leave the place were they grew up. The
reasons behind that can be anything Esen&OğuşBinatlı (2017). Depending on the situation, some
people leave their home for another place for the search of a job. Some are violated and forced to
leave their home country. Some do not feel safe due to which they decide on leaving. It can be
due to discrimination which can be of religion, sexuality and even political opinions. The journey
of these people are very harsh, and they face major issues like, the risk of human trafficking,
daily racism, xenophobia, discrimination and other forms of violation. Due to these reasons they
end up alone and isolated because of the lack of supporting networks, communities, colleagues
and relatives.
One of the most effective way in refugee supporting authorities can generate help for
these refugees is via online donation method. Through the help of online website's generation of
donation is going to be a very important factor Holzberg, Kolbe &Zaborowski (2018). These
funds generated can be helpful for providing help for the welfare of these people. Donation in the
monitory terms are sometimes not so easily available thus, these authorities can also think about
getting the donation of goods, which can be food, clothes and other necessary items Hathaway
(2018). During the pandemic many people and institutions donated health and safety kits to these
refugees which was a great example of good donation. Donating money and goods can be good
