 VicFI5M3FhSUZ6dz09   Hybrid Meeting - Fatima Haidari\, my story Fatima Ha
 idari (فاطمه حیدری)\; was born in Afghanistan. She is 24 ye
 ars old. She belongs to the Hazara community\, an ethnic group in Af
 ghanistan. Her ethnicity plays a huge role in her refugee journey and
  the fact that she had to leave her family behind at the age of 17.   
 Fatima is former refugee\; she settled in Turtle Island in 2015 when
  she was only 17 years old without her family. She studied at Langara 
 College for two years. Currently\, she is studying joined major in Crimin
 ology and Gender Studies at Simon Fraser University.    She worked and
  volunteered with different non-profit organizations in different capac
 ity such as facilitator\, co-facilitator\, interpreter\, and other r
 oles. In her free time\, she likes to go hiking\, biking\, watch document
 ary\, comedy\, and volunteering in community.    She is passionate a
 bout social activism\, refugee rights\, Hazara history\, advocacy\, and
  giving back to community in any way. Her lived experiences as former re
 fugee brought her closer to the issues that impact refugees.  In additi
 on\, she has a very special connection to nature\, and land because she
  grew up in a village called Maknak Malistan in Ghanzi province.  
   Currently\, Fatima is working with Intercultural Association of Greater
  Victoria as RAP Life Skills Worker in Victoria. Her family members (mothe
 r\, five sisters\, one of her brothers\, her two nieces\, and two of her u
 nlce’s families) escaped to Pakistan on August 22\, 2021\, due to curre
 nt crisis and being Hazara. Because of being Hazara\, they were denied ent
 ry to Pakistan land five times when they attempted to cross the border. I
 n other words\, being Hazara have made both the escape and living in Afgha
 nistan unbearable as the Hazaras have been prosecuted and oppressed both h
 istorically and currently. Luckily\, they managed to make it to Pakistan a
 fter multiple tries\; however\, her family members are in a very difficul
 t situation in Pakistan. In addition\, some of her family members includin
 g her father\, her sister-in-law with her two children\, and her brother-i
 n-law are still in Afghanistan\; they have not been able to escape yet.
