About this listen

Meet 31 extraordinary people - from refugees and asylum seekers to those on the frontline helping them - and hear about the life-changing journeys they have made.

We are currently experiencing the biggest humanitarian crisis of our time. Across the world, from Ukraine to Sudan to Mexico, people are forced to flee their homes every day due to conflict, climate change and persecution. And devastatingly, the scale of this crisis is only predicted to get worse: by 2050, 1 in 10 people on earth will be displaced. Having met and interviewed hundreds of people impacted by migration, charity founder Jaz O'Hara shares 31 remarkable and inspiring stories, from refugees to volunteers working on the frontline: ordinary people with extraordinary experiences.

Here are the voices that often go unheard: the humans behind the statistics and the headlines. Asylum Speakers will transcend borders, nationalities, religions and languages, connecting you to the people with whom we share this world.

An absolute essential listen for anyone wanting to look beyond the vile and negative rhetoric of the media and Government about asylum seekers. First hand accounts from many individuals, explain why they have no choice but to flee their homelands. Recounted sympathetically and clearly by Jaz, the listener is able to understand the complexities of forced migration. It is moving, inspiring and should be compulsory listening for all.

A compulsive listen.
