Mygration – Narrate Your Future Selves workshop with TurkeChini
NARRATE YOUR FUTURE SELVES
Workshop for Refugee Women* ONLY
It is evident that refugees suffer from traumatic experiences due to war/poverty, fleeing and reintegration into a strange country that is to become a new home. Much emphasis is (rightfully) placed on these topics. At the same time, healing such trauma is a life-long journey and time keeps ticking as refugees continue their regular daily lives. Often times this results in days focused more on survival rather than living, let alone dreaming. This workshop aims to slightly open the possibility of living beyond survival by narrating different future selves and breaking down the most unlikely one – the dream future self.
