VOA Podcast: Refugees discuss the meaning of ‘home away from home’

As nations observed World Refugee Day on June 20, some refugees say the theme of this year’s commemorations, “Hope Away from Home: A world where refugees are always included,” was important because it promoted unity and peace within different societies. VOA’s Jackson Mvunganyi hosted a podcast to hear more about the day. Guests included Lual Mayen, a South Sudanese video game developer who spent 22 years in a Ugandan refugee camp, Raphael Ndabaga, a Congolese filmmaker who was in Malawi’s Dzaleka camp for over a decade and Maggy Barankitse, a Burundian humanitarian.
