Event | Who owns the narrative?

Across newsrooms, stages, screens, and funding tables, there's a growing movement to reshape how migration and displacement are understood. So what does it look like when the people at the heart of these crises tell their own stories, and could it influence the systems that shape their lives? The New Humanitarian hosted a night of film and conversation with journalists, artists, and cultural funders to explore these very questions.

This event was moderated by Eric Reidy, Migration and Special Coverage Editor at The New Humanitarian, and featured:

• Bridgit Antoinette Evans | Artist, culture change strategist, and CEO of the Pop Culture Collaborative
• Arian Moayed | Actor, writer, director, and co-Founder of Waterwell
• Mazin Sidahmed | Co-Founder and Executive Director, Documented
• Annie Slemrod | Journalist, storyteller, and Middle East Editor at The New Humanitarian
