Refugee Stories for Change
Thursday 18 June 2026 at 2:30PM
Melton Library & Learning Hub
Event Description
Join us for a powerful and inspiring speaking session with Safi, centred on this year’s Refugee Week theme of ‘One Million Stories’.
Safi will share with you a deeply personal story of displacement, rebuilding, and belonging—offering a meaningful opportunity to move beyond headlines and connect with the human realities of seeking safety. This event creates space to listen, reflect, and engage with stories that highlight both the challenges and the remarkable contributions of people from refugee backgrounds.
Refugee Week is a time to recognise the courage and resilience of refugees around the world, and to reaffirm our shared commitment to building inclusive and welcoming communities.
