This is an innovative interactive digital resource, launching on 21/06/24, aims to enhance the local Police Service’s response to racially motivated hate crimes and incidents. This event will feature short films showcasing the experiences of refugees and asylum seekers from South Belfast and live storytelling by three courageous women from Syria.

The project, developed in collaboration with Voicing the Void and supported by the Community Fund and Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust, seeks to cultivate understanding, empathy and cohesion within South Belfast’s diverse communities. At the heart of our initiative is the transformative power of restorative storytelling, and this event will demonstrate its potential to inspire significant change.
