Preparing to go to Canada - Refugees attending CoA sessions

Muse Mohammed and Ashley Yoojung Ha

Every year, thousands of refugees are given the opportunity to resettle to Canada and have a fresh start to their lives. In order to prepare them for this next chapter, refugees attend a series of pre-departure orientation sessions provided by IOM worldwide. The sessions help inform refugees of what to expect when travelling to Canada and give them all of the essential information they need to start the next chapter in their lives.
