Young Migrant Podcast launch & Human Library
A group of young European Glaswegians has launched a podcast sharing personal stories of change, identity and migration. Some of them moved to Scotland in their childhood, some came more recently due to conflict or to study and work. What major transitions have they faced since settling here? Does Scotland now feel like home? Join us to listen to the podcast and for an informal Q&A with young people. The podcast was created by the School of Geographical and Earth Sciences at the University of Glasgow as part of the Migyouth project. The event is organised by Migrant Voice, a migrant-led national organisation advocating for justice and amplifying migrant voices.
