Happy New VOICESEA - Intersectionality of Human Rights, Democracy and Migration
Description
In every New Year, people often ask “what are your New Year’s resolution?" or “What's new for you in this year?" As obviously you can see, what’s new for BEBESEA 2022 is the launch of our rebranded podcast ‘VOICESEA Podcast’! Yeay! But why did we decide change our name and what’s new?
VOICESEA comes with widening our focus and perspectives of our conversations from previously focusing solely on migration to the wider issues related to human rights in East and Southeast Asia in order to equip ourselves for better advocacy work for the rights of migrants and cross-cutting/intersectional human rights issues. Shrinking civic space in Indonesia, Hong Kong and Myanmar, and also extra judicial killing in the name of the war on drug in the Philippines are the examples of deterioration of human rights situations happened in our regions in 2021. But why are we making this podcast about cross-cutting and intersectional human rights issues? Why is it important for BEBESEA?
If you want to know more about our new initiative for 2022, don't miss this episode!
