R2R!
Great stuff, @ChristinSa ! I love the “R2R” concept. With @Alex_Levene we had already appreciated the self-organising skillls demonstrated by refugees in the case of The Jungle in Calais (I highly recommend you read his beautiful posts: one and two).
The Jungle behaves the way it does because it is not an official camp. It’s more like a favela: the first stop in a migrant’s social journey, which mostly goes upwards in the social ladder. So, refugees are more free to cooperate, R2R, then they would be in an official camp. Their ingenuity and skills come into play: they make their own lives better, and become empowered at the same time. Your own story, it seems, goes much in the same direction.
