Advocating for migrant rights

Working with Brighter Futures fighting for change

Some of my most important work has been as Associate artist at Kazzum Arts. This has allowed me to facilitate a weekly group based in Bethnal Green called Brighter Futures. Brighter Futures are a group of young migrants fighting for change.

Every year Kazzum Arts has invited me to work with an array of young migrants in order to create a resource kit for refugee week in schools across England. This particular film was born out of discussions and workshops attempting to capture the specific problems facing young people when they enter this country.

This video has been viewed more than 5000 times and I continue to speak in schools and businesses every refugee week.
