Amnesty International has been a long time advocate for refugees. Here
are just a few links that you might find interesting. I personally have
signed up for the MOOC, "Human Rights: The Rights of Refugees."
It's a FREE online three week class that is offered throughout the year
starting on November 16 from Amnesty International. Let's work together
and do all that we can for these families who are fleeing their
countries.
