Migrant Odyssey
This series is specifically aimed at helping to change the current fear-ridden attitude of the wealthy world to migrants, as well as to grant the migrants themselves (be they refugees or economic and climate driven) a voice of self confidence and pride.
We'll be talking to extraordinary people who are transforming themselves and their host countries, with courage and ingenuity.-
If the title of the podcast is “Migrant Odyssey”, its spirit is certainly “Too big to contain”.
