One step at a time: Helping the Refugee Housing crisis.
One of the workshops I attended was “You cannot settle like this”: Addressing local
refugee housing problems. After reading some case studies based on true refugee
stories there was a discussion about what can be done to solve such issues. On
reading about this issue after the conference, I found an interesting article that
showed what we as residents of Vancouver could do to help these refugees.

This article illustrates many organizations that are there to help these refugees.
The solutions that we came up in the workshop varied from policy making to
infrastructure. At the same time, as residents of this wonderful city we also have an
opportunity to help these newcomers to our country.
