Bana’s home in Gaza was destroyed, and she was forced to move again and again - until she ended up in the Nusierat refugee camp. There, she has been unable to go to school or to dance dabka, the dance that once made her feel truly free.

Listen to this episode to hear Bana describe life in the camp, what her days were like before everything changed, and the dreams she still holds onto despite it all.
