Australia for UNHCR
Description
Khaled Hosseini, a former refugee from Afghanistan, and one of our Goodwill Ambassador's visited Syrian refugees in northern Iraq. Khaled met many refugees, including two inspiring young women - Payman an aspiring writer, and Nayleen, who runs a professional beauty salon in the camp. He was impressed at how the women's activities helped them to find purpose in a camp where many are " living a suspended existence...waiting for the day to end".
