dc.description.abstractDrawing on an arts-based narrative approach this study investigates how young people who arrived in South Australia as refugees experience their education-to-employment trajectories. Three findings were established: refugee youth bring and are developing, linguistic and cultural knowledge and expertise, which include their multilingual and intercultural capabilities; they are seeking dignity in the context of prejudicial attitudes, behaviours and practices; and art unlocks insights into the internal worlds and tacit knowledge of participants. Contributing to research that advocates for alternative approaches, these findings show that young refugees bring a wealth of knowledge and capabilities. Their knowledge and capabilities are expertise that otherwise may not be available in Australia, a context that migrants continue to enter, and engage in education and the world of work.
