We live, and move, and have our being: Refugees vulnerability and the ecclesial challenge for diaconal praxis
Having an identity unconnected to their status is one of the challenges facing refugees. It is a challenge to create an alternative to the definitional context of being and belonging since the refugee phenomenon is arguably the largestmigratory movement among all forms of human mobility.

| 520 | |a Having an identity unconnected to their status is one of the challenges facing refugees. It is a challenge to create an alternative to the definitional context of being and belonging since the refugee phenomenon is arguably the largestmigratory movement among all forms of human mobility. In South Africa, refugees often suffer in silence with little or no help even as they go through painful experiences. These and related phenomena pose a practical challenge for theology in South Africa and raise questions on the practice of diakonia in light of the refugee phenomenon. The question could, therefore, be asked: How can we respond to the growingmigratory trend? This paper demonstrates how the church as an agent of hope can translate the multilayered dynamics of vulnerability experienced by refugees into a diaconal opportunity, so they can be able to say with confidence, for example, in South Africa, We live, and move, and have our being. The article uses the findings from a recently completed doctoral dissertation on the health and well-being of refugees in Cape Town, South Africa. The data on which this article is based were collected qualitatively through interviews and focus-group discussions and reflects the findings of the doctoral research of the first author. | ||
