MAP (Migration to Asia Peace) runs a project where refugees speak directly with members of the public to build greater understanding of refugee experiences in Korean society. Any refugee or asylum seeker who wants to share their story is welcome to apply as a speaker.
What is this project?
The MAP Dialogue Project brings refugee speakers to various events to have real conversations with Korean citizens. The goal is to challenge widespread misconceptions and build a more accurate understanding of refugee communities.
Since it launched in 2019, MAP speakers have spoken with 7,209 people across 133 events.
