SOLY es originario de Senegal. HELENA dejó Bolivia. SAID tuvo que huir de Siria. RUTH nació en El Salvador. MERIEM se fue de Marruecos, igual que OSSAMA. Lo que entrelaza sus historias es que todos ellos se han visto OBLIGADOS A PARTIR. Con este libro queremos mostrar seis historias de vida, seis recorridos llenos de dificultades y retos. Tres mujeres y tres hombres que tuvieron que emigrar nos explican cómo era su vida antes; por qué y cómo se fueron, y cómo es actualmente su vida en un nuevo país donde no conocían a nadie. Son historias de superación, pero también de dolor, de soledad, de acogida y de integración. Historias que, a pesar de todo, acaban bien, porque alguien (personas o entidades) se ha ocupado de que así fuera. Los testimonios que presentamos nos invitan a cambiar la mirada, a poner nombre y rostro a la experiencia de tantas y tantas personas que se ven obligadas a jugarse la vida buscando un futuro más digno.

SOLY is originally from Senegal. HELENA left Bolivia. SAID had to flee Syria. RUTH was born in El Salvador. MERIEM left Morocco, as did OSSAMA. What intertwines their stories is that they have all been FORCED TO LEAVE. With this book we want to show six life stories, six journeys full of difficulties and challenges. Three women and three men who had to emigrate tell us what their life was like before; why and how they left, and what their life is like today in a new country where they didn't know anyone. They are stories of overcoming, but also of pain, loneliness, acceptance and integration. Stories that, in spite of everything, end well, because someone (people or entities) has taken care of it. The testimonies we present invite us to change our gaze, to put a name and a face to the experience of so many people who are forced to risk their lives in search of a more dignified future.
