Introduction:
Choice of subject
As a refugee myself, the problems and issues that refugees bring to the counselling room have been close to my heart. After studying diversity and cultural sensitivities, it seemed necessary to conclude the subject with some information about refugees.
I recognised the need to explain difference between immigrant and refugee, which seemed to have not been discussed in detail.
I have my own experience as a refugee, and having worked with their issues over 10 years in Sweden gave me the confidence that I needed to be able to work on my presentation.

Research and preparation
I began my research by Googling the word” refugee”. The result was overwhelming. I felt I needed to find a more structured book to begin with. I had some Swedish and German reports and began to go through them. Studing those reports made me to realise the imortance of defining who is refugee and how it is different with immigrant.
I began to search for research that has been done around the subject. Amazingly, I found out that countries like Sweden and Germany have completed more researchers in the subject than UK. Unfortunately, it proved to be a difficult task to find many works which have been done on the area here. However, it seemed that the majority of refugees’ issues are similar despite their origin and the host country.
