Presentation on the photographic series

How We Love
Navigating identities: is there a relationship between Diaspora’s homeland and new land? How do diasporas express their sense of belonging in multiple societies?, Youth and their roots: what is it like to be born or grow up as a member of the diaspora; how can the youth connect with their homeland?, Diasporas helping their communities: what is it like to assist communities during a crisis?
Despite of being in a new land, while trying to adopt to the new condition, by learning a new language, new foods with new community and rules, still diasporas are keeping their own traditions as well. for example, by baking their own bread in the camp and making sure all the diasporas getting some. Youth and children are learning new skills like photography, riding a bike and learning a new language. Diasporas know and feel each other's struggle and during the crisis, they will make sure their communities are supported as much as possible. All will eat or no one will eat. That is what I have leant from diasporas.
