 My name is Khadra Mohamed and I would like to share with my Somali fellows my perspective in resettlement. In other words what it means to me to be a successfully resettled person in New Zealand.
Resettlement is such an important topic as it is constantly applied to people from refugee backgrounds like myself. Policy makers, government departments and NGOs use the term when discussing or initiating policies and programmes aimed at addressing the resettlement challenges faced by both the newly arrived refugees as well as former refugees.

The terms “refugee and migrant” are not identity but rather are descriptions given to people who left their homes as a result of unfavourable external pressure (s) placed upon them. Also while Resettlement in its broader definition portrays challenging process, it can be even more complicated for groups like Somalis whose language, culture and religion are significantly different from the dominant society in the receiving country.
