You know I love storytelling. So when I heard about a project called ‘Telling the Real Story,’ I was immediately drawn. The project, which was facilitated by UNHCR, landed to the Startups Without Borders Summit last November 8 and 9, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to be speaking to one of its members, Amal Jibril.

A Passionate about humanitarian issues and technology, Amal has been tirelessly working to provide refugees living in camps in Ethiopia, with opportunities for self-realization, using storytelling as a core tool.

In this episode, we discuss how the creative economy can offer incredible opportunities for refugees, and what it means to try to showcase the ‘real story’ not only about, but told BY refugees.
