In the second part of our first episode with Sanela, the founder of the World Travelers Community in Sarajevo, will we discuss the situation of reception centers for People on the Move, also called camps, in Bosnia and Herzegovina from 2020 untill today. Therefore, Sanela shares her expertise and experience with us regarding the Lipa camp crisis in the winter of 2020/21, the inhumane conditions in the camps, as well as the systematic pushbacks at the external EU borders. Finally, she explains which asylum (im)possibilities Bosnia offers to People on the Move. The World Travelers Community in Sarajevo in Bosnia and Herzegovina supports People on the Move, refugees, and asylum seekers in their long-term integration process with different services and the possibility of employment opportunities. Components of this program are legal support, language courses in Bosnian and English, psychological support, assistance in finding and affording accommodation in shared houses, as well as in job search. The podcast is one way to support this transformative project and advocate the silenced stories of our participants. Please keep in mind that we are a completely non-commercial and social podcast project. Based solely on the work of volunteers, therefore our quality of production cannot always compete with those who can pay salaries to professional producers.
