    Exhibition: Soy tú, eres yo

    Social Library, in which the Spanish Committee of UNHCR brings us closer to the reality of six refugees.

    Currently, the number of refugees and displaced people who have had to leave their homes to flee violence and persecution is constantly increasing. Who are they, where do they come from and where are they going? What are their stories?

    We invite you to take a journey to meet Amina, Moheyman, Florance, Kamal, Tateh and Maritza. Listen to their voices and reconstruct their experiences through the objects that have marked their journey.

    The installation is linked to a digital piece where you will find these and other stories: https://soytueresyo.eacnur.org/site

    If you want to delve deeper into the topic of refugees, there are books and journals in the library to help you.
