The Good Karma Project is a multi-media youth-development project joining the art of Aotearoa with the creativity of refugee children from Burma. Last December with the help of international charity, Children on The Edge, two Wellington volunteers, Pat Shepherd and Josh Bahlman, travelled to Mae Sot, Thailand where thousands of children have taken refuge to escape the instability of their homeland. For six weeks they worked with refugee children to strengthen their development by increasing the creativity in their daily lives. Living situations are desperate for these children, and for all of them, education is a privilege and art, an unknown experience.
