This ongoing collection brings together short video excerpts from interviews with young people in New York, Berlin, and other cities, reflecting on belonging, migration, family, discrimination, and everyday life.
Young people and immigrants are often spoken about in debates on migration, but rarely centered as experts and interpreters of their own lives. The collection is intentionally transnational to surface shared questions across borders.
Explore the stories by storyteller, theme, through curriculum pathways, through curated collections, or by browsing the full archive.
Immigrants make you part of the world. And the fact that immigrants want to come to your country, should be seen as a badge of honor.

Use the archive to explore all stories at your own pace. You can filter by topic, city, search by keyword, or browse page by page to discover stories across places and experiences. Each story is a short video excerpt drawn from in-depth interviews. Together, they offer insight into how migration, identity, and belonging are lived in everyday life.
Behind every video is a person navigating belonging, identity, and diaspora. Meet the people who make this archive possible.
