5.4: Section summary

In this section, we have listened to the narratives of young people through the medium of a digital film. The film raised a number of important themes, many of which you will be familiar with as a social care practitioner. Perhaps some key reflections to take away are around what the film tells us about how young people’s sense of self is tightly linked to the rhythms of their asylum claim. The study participants talked about their relationships with other young people and adults, and the significant impact it has on them when these relationships are disrupted. Of course, the final section of the film focused on change.

In the next section, you are going to complete your course by reflecting on all you have learnt.
