Refugee Teenagers Magazine: Escape and Protection from Persecution and War (1999)

Each day, somewhere on this planet, teenagers become refugees. These are young people who have fled their home countries to escape persecution or war. Refugee teenagers often face mistreatment during flight, and further dangers await them upon arrival in their country of asylum. Because they are not yet grown up, refugee teenagers are among the most vulnerable groups of any refugee population. This brochure recounts the stories of several refugee teenagers and discusses some of the issues surrounding the protection of refugee adolescents, namely, the dilemmas of unaccompanied minors and the military recruitment of child soldiers.
