As the Trump administration plans to reduce the number of refugees entering the country, Doctors Without Borders wants to show you just what it's like to be driven out of your home, and forced to find a new place to live.

They've put together an interactive exhibit in Seattle called, "Forced From Home." It follows the journey of a refugee escaping conflict - from a tent hospital and finally to a host country.

Ebam Eyang Ebam is an emergency response doctor who's worked throughout West Africa. The exhibit looks just like one of the group's mobile emergency clinics.

"We try to show everyone what we do, like what the health center is usually like. And we take the opportunity to talk about activities like vaccination and nutrition screening," Ebam said.

The exhibit also uses actual materials from refugee camps like boats, tents and backpacks. It's all to get you to think about just what a refugee experiences and "bring you closer to what the reality truly is."

"It's easy to forget something when you hear it and when you read something. But when you do it, you see it, you feel it - it sticks," Ebam said. "I believe that when people leave here they're going to continue to relate to whatever they've seen here because it doesn't get any closer than this."

Of the 65 million people displaced worldwide, the U.S. took in 97,000 refugees last year. Last week, President Trump announced plans to cap that number at 45,000 annually. That's the lowest number since 1980.

The "Forced From Home" exhibit is being presented for free at the South Lake Union Discovery Center through Sunday.

But he made it - saved by doctors at a new Red Cross field hospital in Cox's Bazar, the largest clinic of its kind in the overcrowded camps stretching along the border with Myanmar.

"Had he come even an hour later, he would have no chance to survive," Peter Meyer, team leader at the 60-bed hospital the size of two football fields, told AFP.

The infant, Mohammad Hares, is among the more than 600,000 refugees who have poured into Bangladesh since late August to escape ethnic violence in neighbouring Myanmar.

Many arrived sick, starving and nursing bullet wounds and landmine injuries, putting enormous pressure on the already overwhelmed medical clinics operating in camps near the border.

Red Cross doctors at the new hospital have been treating upwards of 200 patients a day, as exhausted Rohingya Muslims continue to cross into Bangladesh by land and sea, many in desperate need of treatment.

"A lot of patients we've treated are weak and tired. There is a lot of exhaustion and dehydration due to long walks," said paediatric nurse Hildur Svenonsdottir at the clinic equipped with an operating theatre, maternity ward and isolation unit.

"There are patients who have not eaten for days," she added.

The threat of a serious disease outbreak stalks the densely populated camps, where hundreds of thousands of refugees live squeezed together in basic shanties lacking proper toilets.

Doctors fear a water-borne disease like cholera would wreak havoc in such conditions and thousands of patients - especially children - are already suffering from acute diarrhoea.

Meyer said the hospital was planning to send mobile teams deeper into the camps, where bamboo and plastic shanties - perched on hillsides far from relief centres - stretch for miles.

"What we have seen so far is only the tip of the iceberg," he said.

For many Rohingya, the new hospital staffed by foreign doctors and stocked with equipment is their first encounter with modern medicine.

Healthcare is abysmal across the border in Rakhine, Buddhist-majority Myanmar's poorest state, where the Rohingya are denied citizenship and regarded as illegal migrants.

The persecuted Muslim minority have been largely deprived of proper medical care, and doctors say those arriving already show signs of serious malnutrition and other preventable illnesses.

"I have never seen such a hospital in my entire life," Mohammad's mother Halima Khatun told AFP.

"When we were sick, we only saw the local village healers."

Her young boy was saved by urgent surgery from a team of doctors who drained fluid from his lungs - treatment unimaginable in her village back home.

The infant was "recovering fast", Meyer said, adding: "He is a great fighter."

Justin Thiok's voice was already low as he spoke in the University of Colorado Denver's Auraria Library on Monday, but when he discussed the circumstances that caused him to leave Africa in 2001, he dropped the volume to barely above a whisper.

Thiok is one of several Sudanese refugees who were relocated to Colorado from camps and other locations in Africa by the United Nations. Once in Colorado, Boulder County residents and organization helped the so-called "Lost Boys" (and later girls) of Sudan adjust to their new home.

Thiok is from the Dinka ethnic tribe in Sudan. In 2000, he was teaching at a Christian school that was set up by Americans in Khartoum, the largely Islamic capital in northern Sudan.

"One day I was teaching in the elementary (school) and the government accused me - the secret government at that time - accused me of trying to teach Muslim kids Christianity. They say I was trying to convert them to the Bible, but I was just doing a review after school because they were going to exams," Thiok said.

At that time, Sudan was in a civil war between northern and southern factions that resurged in 1983. The war was largely over the north's attempts to Islamize the legal system and a lack of economic development in the south. The two sides reached a peace agreement in 2005 and in 2011, the south voted by referendum to secede from Sudan and South Sudan was declared an independent country, according to the Encyclopaedia Britannica.

Rumors that Thiok was attempting to convert Muslim students to Christianity, plus a photo of him with one of the Americans who founded the school, meant he was threatened.

"They came to our house at night and I get a beating and they ask me not to be in that school again. They said, 'Do not got back to that school,'" he said. "It was a tough situation and I was lucky. My uncle worked with the government and he helped to prepare my documents because I was nobody. And he sent me to Egypt."

From Egypt, Thiok was accepted into the United Nations program that would resettle him in Colorado. He arrived in Denver with other refugees and they met Jean Wood, who they quickly took to calling Mama Jean.

In 2000, when Thiok was struggling in northern Sudan, Wood saw a "60 Minutes" special on violence in Darfur, a western region of Sudan.

Wood then read about the "Lost Boys of Sudan," who were being relocated in the Denver area in 2001, and decided she had to help.

She didn't have a career in nonprofit organizations. Nevertheless, she started Colorado Friends of the Lost Boys of Sudan, a 501(c)(3) organization.
