In today’s episode we discuss practitioners working with migrants. We look practically at some of the skills we need and how we can improve our practice. I speak to drama and movement therapist Becky Hall, I meet up with executive director Lauren Irving from Kazzum Arts, head of relationships Anna McDonald from Play for progress, programme manager Amy Spiller from Coram and project manager Irma Sippola from Migrant Youth in Helsinki. We then hear from applied theatre practitioner Andrea Tuijten and Jonathan Barnes, one of the founders of E4D charity. If you are a practitioner working with migrant communities this should be a practical and useful discussion for all.
