Why We Speak: Help Spread Refugee Stories
Story
Refugee rights have been at the core of 3 Generations' work since we covered the genocide in Darfur in the film The Devil Came On Horseback in 2007. Our feature Lost in Lebanon was part of our multi-part coverage of the Syrian refugee crisis. We have also covered stories of Rohingya Muslims and Yazidi women fleeing ISIS. Currently, we are working on a short film about camps, which includes coverage of the genocide in Ukraine. We will continue our fight for refugee justice.
Impact
Our films have proven track records as being impactful in several ways: they raise awareness, they educate audiences, they are calls to action and they foster empathy and compassion for refugees. Additionally they serve as records for the future. They exist in perpetuity as evidence for the future of mankind.
Challenge
The global refugee crisis is growing. Today there are over 84 million people across the world who are displaced from their homes or their country of origin. Each one has an important story to tell. Geo-political and health crises like Covid-19 only make the challenges refugees and their hosts and advocates face even harder. Economic uncertainty breeds intolerance. Ignorance and lack of empathy worsens an already complex problem.
