About this listen

Anila Noor is a refugee-activist based in the Netherlands. In this fascinating interview, Anila unpacks what it means to be a migrant, a refugee and an activist in Europe. Anila describes in detail what it was like to come to Europe as a refugee, and how difficult it was to accept the label of ‘refugee’ due to the stigma around the word. Anila explains the importance of sharing her story, and stories like hers so that people understand the facts and the reality of what it is like for refugees, rather than the statistics.

Anila founded New Women Connectors, a movement striving for mainstreaming the unheard voices of migrant and refugee women living across Europe. New Women Connectors is a perspective-shift to the refugee agenda and advocates inclusion than integration as a policy choice.

An inspiring and enlightening listen for everyone
