Our Stories

In this virtual environment, all female migrant women are encouraged to share their life story and/or their experiences of their participation to the SMART Volunteering project!

This storytelling seeks to change the way the world sees an issue as it frames the debate on actual people and their experiences rather than on impersonal data and information.
