Migrant Odyssey
Real voices. True journeys. Humanity without borders
Migrant Odyssey tells the stories of people who’ve crossed borders and kept going — individuals whose intelligence, determination and generosity of spirit enrich any country or community they reach . These are stories of true worth — proof that migration is not a problem, but part of what makes us human.
Migrant Odyssey
Ep 21. The Children of the Dispossessed: what happens next?
This is the story of a 6 year old girl who was left to look after her younger brother and sister while her migrant parents worked every day and most of the night.
This is the story of Mirujaa, eldest daughter of Sri Lankan refugees whose single minded goal was to succeed in their new country while paying back their families "back home".
This is the story of how the burden of the desperate and the dispossessed is passed onto the next generation. And how it is lifted.
You know as well as I do that stories about migrants don’t attract big sponsors.
Governments are hostile, corporations stay cautious, and even NGOs hang on to their tightening budgets.
That's why we need your help. Migrant Odyssey exists — to make sure those voices are still heard.
If you’ve ever felt that empathy without action isn’t enough, this is one real way to make a difference. Even a small monthly contribution — one you’ll hardly notice — helps keep these voices alive.
