UNHCR - September 2017

Ten teens set sail each year on a weeklong adventure, half of them from Ireland and the other half refugees who arrived in Europe recently on a different kind of boat. The trip is led by human rights lawyer and part time sailor Shauna Gillan, who seeks to help teens from across the world build a shared experience of a lifetime.
