The organisation was established because a group of engaged people wanted to do something with the conditions concerning increasing fear and intolerance towards foreign people. The people who engaged themselves in this organisation often experienced that people who arrived in Norway was judged in advance because of their origin. This judgement was not only spoken by individuals, but also through the inhuman refugee-policy defined by the state. The organisations main activities are “Camp Refugee” and the roleplay “Refugee”. “Camp Refugee” Camp Refugee is a new concept from Refugee Norway, developed by Kenneth Johansen in collaboration with pedagogues. The main aim for Camp Refugee to achieve, is to give the participates an insight in, and a feeling of, how it actually is to be a refugee, and how refugees are treated by individuals and states. Camp Refugee is located at Trandum camp near Gardermoen airport, and runs from Friday evening to Sunday at noon. The participants will experience several activities such as ghost-hunting and roleplay. We wish to set fiction in relation with reality, and therefore we visit the war-memorial in the Trandum-woods. This take place before the participants themselves are let to pretend to be refugees in the roleplay “Refugee”, where they meet some of the problems and challenge that individuals can experience during a war. Most importantly Camp Refugee gives the participants an opportunity to establish connections through play, fun and joint adventure. The roleplay “Refugee” Those who get the opportunity to experience the roleplay “Refugee” will probably never forget it.
