Voices of Impact: Women Leading Sustainable Change - Episode 1
Adla Shashati, Director of the Greek Forum of Migrants, Greece
Her name means justice. She has been passing the baton her whole life.
Adla Shashati is a Sudanese-Greek journalist and the Director of the Greek Forum of Migrants, one of the most prominent migrant-led organisations in Europe.
In this conversation, she speaks about identity, the system migrants face when they arrive in Greece and why she no longer uses the word integration.
“If there is a boat with 300 migrants, there is a boat with 300 migrants. It's not 300 people, it's not 300 human beings.”
She also speaks about what Europe's differing response to refugees revealed about race and migration policy, why hope for her means choosing to continue and not optimism and what she actually wants people to do this World Refugee Day.
This conversation was recorded for Voices of Impact, a series by Hear Her Stories in partnership with the Journalists and Writers Foundation.
