Скачать или смотреть Thu-Trang fled communism and survived a perilous boat journey - all for a life of safety.

It took Thu-Trang and her family 13 attempts to flee Vietnam's communist regime in the 1980s. A perilous boat journey and a refugee camp lay ahead - all when Thu-Trang was only eight years old. Now, with a successful career in public policy and social impact, she shares her refugee story.

Thu-Trang's story is part of Australia's Untold Stories, a series of oral histories of 12 former refugees who have rebuilt their lives in Australia. Their first countries include Afghanistan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Chile, Eritrea, Laos, South Sudan and Vietnam.

These refugees are just a few of the million who have settled in Australia since the end of World War II through the Refugee and Humanitarian Program.

Through their stories, we reflect on the contributions refugees have made in shaping Australia over the last eight decades, and the role everyday Australians have played in receiving and welcoming refugees, enabling them to build new lives free from persecution.

Australia's Untold Stories is a series by the Refugee Council of Australia, the country's peak body for refugees, people seeking asylum, and those who support them. We advocate for humane, lawful and constructive policies towards refugees and people seeking asylum in Australia.
