Welcome to a Refugee’s Home

Suzanne Ling, co-founder, The Picha Project

Welcome to a Refugee’s Home

The Picha Project is a social enterprise that works on empowering marginalised communities in Malaysia through food catering. At the upcoming Urbanscapes festival, The Picha Project is presenting an immersive experience called “This Is Home”, which highlights the life journey of refugees and puts us momentarily in their shoes by showing us what their homes - both before and now - might look like. The Picha Project co-founder Suzanne Ling tells us how the exhibition was put together and what they hope it will achieve.
