In our final episode of 2021, we talk to Nathaniel Dennison about his work with migrants across the Americas and his non-profit foundation Through My Eyes. Nathaniel talks about his experiences traveling with asylum seekers and forced migrants on caravans and most recently across the Darién Gap in Panama. He talks about why people are forced to make these dangerous journeys and the importance of creating avenues for them to tell their own stories.
The Through My Eyes Foundation website can be accessed here (you can also find them on Facebook): https://www.throughmyeyesfoundation.org/
