Fawaz Rarhail Turkey, 59, is a Syrian refugee from Homs now living in Mafraq, Jordan. He shares his story in Hidden Lives: The Untold Story of Urban Refugees.
Jordan is home to 450,000 Iraqi refugees and over 500,000 Syrian refugees fleeing the current civil conflict. Most Syrian refugees are sheltering in urban areas, eschewing traditional refugee camps in favor of the perceived security and opportunity of the city.
