The Cultural Orientation Resource Center at the Center for Applied Linguistics has published a Refugee Backgrounder with basic information about Syrian refugees.

A country profile provides a brief guide to Syria’s history, people, and cultures. The backgrounder then looks at the crisis in Syria and the conditions refugees face in first asylum countries. Finally, it considers some of the strengths and resources resettled refugees may be able to draw on in their new communities and some of the challenges they are likely to face.
