This week Learning World takes us to meet a refugee who has been displaced several times, but has now settled in Sweden to make a better life for himself.
Nourollah is an Afghan teenager who travelled without his parents all the way to Sweden from Iran.
"Death was so close to us. I just had to keep going. But we were scared all the time that we might drown or be arrested by police," he says.
Nourollah's Swedish foster parents, school teacher and football coach talk to us about the challenges the teen has faced and progress he has made since his perilous journey to his new home.
Hundreds of thousands of teens have travelled unaccompanied to Europe in the past few years. In 2015 alone, 90 000 minors sought asylum in the EU.
