The goal is to build rapport between Brazilians and refugees from Palestine and Syria. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I see how hard it is for them to settle in because of issues such as language and social interaction,&rdquo; says the event&rsquo;s curator Maria Nilda dos Santos. After 13 years working with an organization involved with Arab culture in the city of S&atilde;o Paulo, Santos decided to keep striving to help refugees adapt in Brazil. <\/p>\n<p>She says that on arriving in Brazil, Arab refugees will often join other Arabs because of the language they share, but integrating with Brazilians is a more complicated issue. &ldquo;People are very curious about refugees, but they won&rsquo;t approach them and speak,&rdquo; Santos points out.<\/p>\n<p>In order to encourage that interaction, the event next week will feature a typical lunch. A traditional dabke dance performance; a screening of an Arab film; sales of typical items; henna tattoos; and a musical performance by refugee artists Ola Alsaghir and Salam Al Saied.<\/p>\n<p>Another interesting feature will be a roundtable talk on refugee employability in Brazil. &ldquo;The trend is to employ refugees in minor positions, but many of them are skilled, and it is important to take advantage of the best they have to offer,&rdquo; says Santos.<\/p>\n<p>Over ten Syrians and Palestinians will be there to answer the questions of Brazilians attending the event.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Quick facts <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Life&rsquo;s treasures: the aromas, flavors and art of Arab refugees <br \/>November 5, 12 pm to 8pm<br \/>Where: Casinha 161 &ndash; Rua Professor Jo&atilde;o Marinho, 161, Para&iacute;so (near metro station)<br \/>Tickets: BRL 20.00 (food, handicraft and henna tattoos are charged separately)<br \/>Find out more at http:\/\/migre.me\/vmEYN<\/p>\n<p><strong>*Translated by Gabriel Pomerancblum<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-187779\">Press Release<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gastronomy, dancing, a bazaar sale, henna tattoos and conversation on jobs will be featured in an event on November 5 in S\u00e3o Paulo.
