Mon monde est un camp | Rima Hassan | TEDxEMLYON

What if refugee camps concealed much more than just misery and despair? Rima Hassan, a Palestinian refugee, was born in the Neirab camp in Syria. Arriving in France at the age of 10, she trained as a lawyer specializing in international law, then served as a rapporteur at the National Court of Asylum and chaired the Refugee Camps Observatory (an NGO she founded in September 2019). At TEDxEMLYON 2022, Rima shared a poignant and inspiring testimony about the human richness of refugee camps and our capacity to support it.
