Asylum’ enabled young people who have been through unspeakable traumas, many of whom are still in pain, to show us their experiences through drama, art and music. By sharing their stories through their laughter and their tears, they are able to begin to heal some of their wounds. Young refugees and asylum seekers arrive in foreign countries destitute and traumatized having often traveled illegally stowed away in lorries and containers. They are preyed on by ‘agents’ who traffic these ‘human commodities’ and force them to face life threatening ordeals. Sadly when they arrive in their new countries they do not always meet welcoming arms. They may face prejudice, lack of understanding and further abuse. By allowing them to express their feelings we help to improve our understanding of their cultures and difficulties to work together to a positive future.
