Razan Ibraheem had no idea that when she packed up her life to move to Europe in the summer of 2011 that this would be the last time she would see home. She only intended to stay for a year to get her masters degree in English language teaching. What happened in these 12 months, however, rendered it impossible to return.
Five months before she departed, in March 2011, pro-democracy demonstrations had begun in Daraa, a city in southern Syria now widely known as the birthplace of the revolution against President Bashar Assad.
Protesters had been inspired by similar uprisings against other oppressive rulers in the Middle East, which ultimately saw governments overthrown in the likes of Tunisia, Egypt and Libya. In Syria, though, Assad responded with a brutal crackdown on those who spoke out. This just stoked anger further, sparking protests nationwide - and as the protests grew stronger, so too did the government s response. The country was soon embroiled in an all-out civil war.
