Refugee Film Project 2012

Each year Voice Arts Trust delivers a drama-based refugee youth project.  This year, in partnership with ChangeMakers Refugee Forum and with support from UNESCO, the focus has been on ‘the positive contributions that people with refugee backgrounds make to family, community and society’.  Eight young people were supported to explore ideas of who they are inspired by and who they are proud of in their community.  Each chose one person to create a narrative, poem or drama about and these eight stories are being weaved together into a short film approx 8 minutes in duration.  The cultural make up of the group was Somali, Sudanese, Afghani and Colombian.
