The Lots of Big Ideas (LOBI) blog aims to counter media distortions of asylum issues. Our wiki is a space where asylum-seekers and refugees - people who don't usually have a voice - can make their stories heard.
These are stories about what it's really like to be an asylum-seeker; stories about why people end up leaving their home and loved ones to seek asylum in a strange and often unwelcoming place. Many of our contributors are members of the Write to Life group at the Medical Foundation for the Care of Victims of Torture;
but we want to encourage anyone to add their voice here.

Songs From Our Homelands Podcast
Write to Life writers sing songs from the countries they've left behind.
Interesting idea, Sophie. But remember to write other kinds of poems whilst you are at it, otherwise it'd be a v-e-r-y slim poetry collection someday!
Glad you're blogging again, and I do visit the short story wiki too.
