Festival of Debate: Activism Across Borders

In partnership with SYMAAG

South Yorkshire Migration and Asylum Action Group (SYMAAG) is a group of volunteers and activists from all over the world. We campaign for the rights of all migrants and against racism in all its forms. Many of us are here because of our activism for system change in our home countries, and we bring this lived experience to the struggle against oppression and for migrant rights here in the UK.

This event will consist of a panel discussion and Q&A with three local activists and SYMAAG members: Manuchehr Maleki Dizaji (Iran), Maria Vasquez-Aguilar (Chile) and Boucka Koffi (Afrika). Facilitated by one of SYMAAG’s co-chairs, Emma Rattenbury, the session will explore the complexity, resonances and value of their contribution to the fight for freedom here in the UK.
