WHAT IS IT LIKE To FLEE?

Not everyone lives a life in safety and peace. Disasters and conflicts affect the lives of many millions of people around the world. What do your students think of this?

At present, an estimate of 70,8 million people around the world have fled their homes. At Humanity House, we enhance understanding of humanitarian themes with our Journey of a Refugee, in which you hear, see and experience what it means to be caught up in a disaster or conflict. A visit to our museum brings disasters and conflicts, which you normally only see on television or read about in newspapers, closer to home – making the unimaginable imaginable.

Plan your visit

Humanity House offers various eductional programmes related to the themes of refugees, war and relief aid. They can be booked individually or in combination. For example, you can complement your Journey of a Refugee with a presentation about International Humanitarian Law by the Red Cross, or the lecture Humanitarian Concern about relief aid and structural collaboration by ICCO and Kerk in Actie. Or choose a personal encounter with Sahar, Ayham or another refugee, who will talk about their refugee story. Are you interested in the events we organise? Check the calendar of Humanity House!
