Exhibition 'Experience Journey' in Humanity House
Launching a new presentation doesn’t sound like anything special. But what if you create a ‘permanent collection’ by adopting eight real people? Since February 2017, you can meet eight individuals from eight different places around the world in our museum. Each with a story unlike any other. What unites them is that they are all refugees who have ended up in the Netherlands.
Get to know Bruce Cerew (33) from Nigeria, who lived through the war in Liberia as a child soldier. And Lidija Zelovic (45) from the former Yugoslavia, who can still picture the face of the boy she loved until her father sent her away to escape the war. Akhrat Selevani (17) from Iraq describes what it was like to spend eight years living and waiting in various Dutch asylum seeker centres. Also, Ram Karki (40) explains his love-hate relationship with the traditional clothing of his home country of Bhutan.
