  • MOAS Podcast 6: Crossing the Desert
    Welcome to another edition of the MOAS podcast. In this episode we're talking about the people who cross the Sahara Desert, many bound for Libya and the crossing to Europe.
    At over 9 million kilometres square and enveloping 11 countries, the Sahara Desert is the largest hot desert on Earth.
    No one truly knows the scale of how many people die making the crossing but it widely held by concerned organisations that many more perish on the journey to Libya than those recorded in the Mediterranean.
    Joining us from Niger in West Africa is Petra Suric Jankov, Business Development Specialist for the Catholic Relief Services.
    CRS is proposing ways to rebuild the economy and livelihoods for the community of Agadez, Niger and the migrants who use the ancient Tuareg city to depart from.
    We talk about the significance of the departure point, how migrants prepare for the crossing, the journey and how to change people's minds about making the crossing.

  • S1 Ep5: Gender and Forced Migration

    In this episode we discuss Gender and its part in Forced Migration. We look closely at how men and women flee instability in their homeland and the experiences of Gender Based Violence faced both on the journey and in the host country. To unpack this theme we speak to former Angolan refugee, Doctoral Student and blogger, Lucia Kula and the Senior Advocacy Officer for the Women's Refugee Commission, Marcy Hersh.

  • Refugees by Brian Bilston

    They have no need of our help

    So do not tell me
    These haggard faces could belong to you or I
    Should life have dealt a different hand
    We need to see them for who they really are
    Chancers and scroungers
    Layabouts and loungers
    With bombs up their sleeves
    Cut-throats and thieves
    They are not
    Welcome here
    We should make them
    Go back to where they came from
    They cannot
    Share our food
    Share our homes
    Share our countries
    Instead let us
    Build a wall to keep them out
    It is not okay to say
    These are people just like us
    A place should only belong to those who are born there
    Do not be so stupid to think that
    The world can be looked at another way

    (Now read from the bottom up)
