In the last few years a number of Kurdish refugees including Yazidis have arrived in Australia from Syria and Iraq. Mainly, these refugees have been resettled in Wagga Wagga, Toowoomba, Coffs Harbour and Armidale. Settlement Services International (SSI) is a community organisation that supports newcomers and other Australians to achieve their full potential. We spoke to Humanitarian Settlement Program (HSP) Team Leader Nabaz Qadhi about Refugee Week 2019 and the events held by SSI in the above mentioned regional areas including Sydney.
