A Welcoming Event from refugees in geneva
In collaboration with l’Hospice Général

Three collective accommodation centers (CHC) that provide housing for migrant people will open their doors to the public (Presinge, Anières, Tattes). The Frank-Thomas Center joins an event at the Community Center of Eaux-Vives and the CHC of Saconnex holds an event at the Lecture Hall of Coudriers.The Festival program will host film screenings, a theater performance, short films by residents of the centers, communal cooking and Eritrean, Syrian, Somali and Afghan buffets, as well as discussions among guests of the festival, residents of the centers and the public. These events help to involve these centers in the local life and encourage meetings. Join us!
Transport for the festival will be organized for migrant people from the surrounding CHCs who do not have film screening sites (Appia, Feuillasse, Praille-Gavard, etc.) as well as for the participants of the reception center of La Roseraie. A screening is also organized for the unaccompanied minors of the Etoile CHC.
