Focus on Unaccompanied Asylum-seeking Children & Youth
From 2015 to 2017, nearly 200,000 unaccompanied and separated children and youth have applied for asylum in Europe. Some have traveled across the continent, while others remain in the country where they first arrived. In many cases, these young people have been without family for months or even years, are living in squalid conditions, are preyed upon by traffickers, smugglers and radical extremists, and exist in a state of limbo – not knowing when or if they will receive asylum or be reunited with family.
Christian Alliance for Orphans (CAFO) coordinates Orphan Sunday each year, and is inviting European churches to focus their Orphan Sunday events around unaccompanied asylum-seeking youth. “The Peace Between” Film features a story of a young man named Raza who began his journey as an unaccompanied youth and found an important friendship in Europe. “The Peace Between” Dialogue Project has created a Special Discussion Guide to focus on Raza’s story.
Raza’s story is part of the “The Peace Between” film. For access, please sign up here, and use this particular story as an excerpt of the film.

This website and the discussion materials were created through a collaboration between:
The European Evangelical Alliance (EEA) brings together both the national Evangelical Alliances of Europe and a large number of pan-European mission agencies. Seeking Christ-like transformation in Europe, EEA serves as the dynamic centre for equipping and resourcing, the European wide trusted Evangelical voice, and the connecting hub for greater strategic impact. EEA powers the collaborative Refugee Campaign.
Courage for the Journey/NCM Central Europe seeks to be in solidarity with displaced persons who are traveling and settling across the Balkans, Central Europe, and Scandinavia. Partnering with other organizations when possible, we seek to fill the spaces that are often left untended, which leads to a diversity of ministry ranging from education, to integration, to aid, to faith conversations, and to the holy activity of simply being present with another person.
