Our Island II is a follow-up to our exciting book Our Island: Personal Accounts of Protecting Refugees in Malta. This first book gathers nine contributions from people who were at the heart of refugee protection in Malta throughout recent years. Our Island is not a historical account of contemporary Maltese history, but rather a gathering of intensely personal insights that shed a unique light on Malta’s recent experiences with refugees.
Our Island II presents 12 personal stories of refugees who live or have lived in Malta. There is no agenda, no NGO narrative, no point to be made. All contributions are presented in their original, raw format because we want to strip refugee narratives of all expectations, stereotypes and frames. Their narratives, their stories.
The launch was associated with two campaigns promoting participation in the 2019 European Parlaiment elections: This Time I’m Voting and #YourVoteOurFuture
