Refugees
SHOULD AUSTRALIA CONTINUE TO CATER TO REFUGEES THAT APPEAR ON ITS SEA
A refuge is defined as a person who is outside or fled their own country and unwilling to return due to a well-founded-fear of being persecuted because of their race, religion, nationality, opinion etc. Since World War Two ended Australia has accepted more than 70,000 refugees and people in humanitarian need. The question is, should Australia continue to do so? According to the Universal Charter of Human Rights, “Everyone has the right to seek refuge in another country”. Refugees and Asylum seekers can’t wait for a proper refuge visa so they seek the aid of smugglers. Australia has enough space and land, yet they are refusing to do so which is inhumane.
A peaceful and prosperous world is one in which people can feel safe and secure in their homes, with their families and in their communities. It is a world in which they can feel confident in their country, their culture and in the family of nations and peoples on our common planet. But when nature intervenes in the form of natural disasters people's homes are washed away, blown away, or shaken to the ground, uprooting entire communities. When war or civil unrest ravages a community, masses or people are forcibly displaced or simply flee to protect life and limb. At the extreme, they are left with two options, death by privation, assault or genocide and watch their family be killed, or try to flee and live in exile. Human Rights believe that everyone has the right to feel safe and secure. Those people who live away from all this torture should support and help families like these, instead of sending them
