A Way Home Together: Stories of the Human Journey
United Nations
12 episodes
9 months ago
"A Way Home Together: Stories of the Human Journey" tells stories of people on the move from different cultures and countries. In our first two episodes, host Ahmed Badr, a refugee from Iraq speaks to his parents and 14-year-old sister about his family's journey. Other early episodes feature young refugees and migrants from the Middle East and Africa, who now live in North America. Their voices, laughter and emotional honesty are examples of how "A Way Home Together" can help build a new narrative  around migrants and others who share their hopes and dreams. Instead of hearing about them in a distant or abstract way, the audience gets up close and personal with remarkable people who are in many ways just like them.
