Conversations From Calais is a project that documents conversations between volunteers and migrants in Calais and pastes them on the walls of our cities. It is a way of re-humanising the refugee crisis. We have now shared more than 260 conversations volunteers have submitted. These have been typed out in 12 different languages, printed as posters and pasted up on walls in 60 cities and 5 different continents. This ever-growing collection of conversations focuses on capturing the diversity of experiences and moving away from the categorisation of refugees as villains, heroic figures or hopeless victims.
