S1 Ep15: Labels and Linguistics Sep 15, 2017

Show notes

What’s in a Label? In this edition of the MOAS Podcast we’re looking at labels and linguistics in Migration. We’re going to explore how the labels given to people on the move have positive and negative impacts on their future. We’ll also see how those labels are shaped for political reasons as well as convenience and the consequences that come with that.

To do this we’re going to speak with Professor Heaven Crawley about her new research into migration categories and the politics behind them. We’ll also be speaking to two contrasting campaigns focused on labels. One says let’s get rid of them and focus on the people, the other says let’s keep the label and let the people given it decide what it means to them. Then we’ll be going back to Erfurt Germany to hear from Tarek Esmail and see how he feels about this. You’re also going to hear our first in a series of Things You Didn’t Know. It’s about the countries that people MOAS has rescued have come from. First up is Yemen.

S1 Ep6: Crossing the Desert May 10, 2017

Show notes

Welcome to another edition of the MOAS podcast. In this episode we're talking about the people who cross the Sahara Desert, many bound for Libya and the crossing to Europe.

At over 9 million kilometres square and enveloping 11 countries, the Sahara Desert is the largest hot desert on Earth.

No one truly knows the scale of how many people die making the crossing but it widely held by concerned organisations that many more perish on the journey to Libya than those recorded in the Mediterranean.

Joining us from Niger in West Africa is Petra Suric Jankov, Business Development Specialist for the Catholic Relief Services.

CRS is proposing ways to rebuild the economy and livelihoods for the community of Agadez, Niger and the migrants who use the ancient Tuareg city to depart from.

We talk about the significance of the departure point, how migrants prepare for the crossing, the journey and how to change people's minds about making the crossing.
