Listen now
Description
For this week’s podcast, we welcomed Dina Nayeri to the microphone for one of our most animated and illuminating podcasts yet. Author, teacher, child refugee and good friend of Refugee Support, Dina and Paul discuss the weight of the ‘debt’ and gratitude often attached to refugees who attain asylum; and how we can lighten this burden through dignified, respectful, and catch free aid. A delight to talk to, Dina – who recently published a controversial article in the Guardian, The ungrateful refugee – shares her passion and perspective on our fundamental responsibility as human beings to help one another. This is a conversation that’ll challenge the way that you think for the better, so make sure you tune in.
