GEM learners reflect on World Refugee Day with heartfelt letters to their future selves — powerful stories of hope, purpose and resilience.
Each year, World Refugee Day reminds us of the extraordinary strength and potential within displaced communities around the globe. This year, SNHU GEM invited learners to reflect on their journeys by writing letters to their future selves—personal narratives that capture hope, resilience, and the transformative power of education.
In these letters, GEM learners share not just their dreams, but the realities they navigate every day. From moments of struggle to bold declarations of purpose, their words offer a glimpse into what it means to pursue a degree while rebuilding a life. We invite you to read their reflections below—a collection that celebrates courage, community, and the vision these students carry forward.
