About this listen

 This podcast crosses the borders of exile to tell the story of educational poverty among Palestinian children and young people in the camps of Lebanon.Lessons Without Homeland is a five-episode series that weaves together voices, testimonies, and memories: those of people born as refugees, those who engage in daily struggles to secure a fundamental right, and those who continue to believe that education is the most powerful form of resistance.Produced by ULAIA ArteSud Volontariato e NISCVT/Beit Atfal Assumoud by the project Learning classes in Wawel camp funded by the Waldensian Church's Otto per Mille, and realised by LAST APS, the podcast gives voice to a forgotten urgency— that of an exiled people who have never stopped studying, dreaming, and teaching.A choral, documentary, and human story, where listening becomes a political act and the voice, an instrument of education.Copyright ULAIA ArteSud ODV Social Sciences
