Two University of Bath post-graduate students have launched ‘Our World Too’ initiative to highlight stories of people seeking sanctuary to debunk some of the myths around refugee and asylum seeker issues.
Refugees and migrant communities continues to be on the receiving end of negative publicity, and this impact on community integration.
Announcing the initiative, a statement released by University of Bath says ‘Our World Too’ offers a space for refugees and displaced people to tell their stories, share their experiences, their hopes and dreams through a series of first-hand, short stories.
University of Bath was last year received the University of Sanctuary Award. More information about the stories initiative and other welcoming activities at University of Bath can be accessed here.
