Guest Podcast: A Young Newcomer’s Perspective on Settling in Canada: from Together Project – Makeway

We are happy to be sharing a podcast from an initiative whose work we admire. Together Project, on the MakeWay shared platform, connects refugee and immigrant newcomers and Canadians to build stronger, more integrated communities.  Their podcast is gathering and sharing the stories of newcomers they serve.  

In this episode, Joudy, a young refugee woman from Syria, speaks with Natasha at Together Project about her experience coming to Canada as a young newcomer, continuing university and overcoming social isolation during the pandemic with the help of Together Project volunteers.
