Atroosh-- A kurdish Refugee Camp in Iraq

    Continuing on my voyage of studying Refugees, I decided it was time to write yet another post regarding the book that I am reading called Migrations- Humanity in Transition.  This is a photo that was taken in Iraq. It is the largest Kurdish refugee camp of Iraqi. Thousands of people live there.

What kind of a home would that be? I often wonder as I study about these things, how do refugees get food? Being a business major, I am very interested in the flow of money and from what I understand, there is no money that is being transferred. This means that they have no supplies and with no supplies they cannot make any money. I am reminded by the destitution apparent in this photo that they really have nothing. They need our help! I am glad that I have had the chance to study them both academically and on my own!
