About this listen

This Podcast puts faces to the complex issues surrounding asylum seekers while examining the flawed policies determining refugee outcomes. We kick off this multi-part series by tracing the perilous journey of asylum seekers from life under threat to navigating lengthy bureaucratic processes for potential resettlement. Alongside testimonies, experts unpack the restrictive and unjust immigration laws, practices and backlogs stranding millions in unsafe conditions or indefinite limbo. By probing the ethics and human impacts underlying migration policies, this hard-hitting introductory episode sets the tone for an eye-opening analysis to come of worldwide asylum systems in crisis. Join us as we separate the people from the politics to put focus back on our shared values and collective responsibility toward displaced people seeking safety.
