Living rough, in a foreign country, in your teens: Abdi speaks

Dec 05, 2013, 05:01 PM

In this podcast Abdi*, 19, tells us of his experiences living destitute on the UK's streets, and of his difficult situation. Young Abdi is stuck in limbo, having been refused status as a refugee in the UK and unable to return to his war-torn home country. "I belong nowhere" he says. Listen to Abdi speaking powerfully of the impossible life choices for young people both in Somalia and as a Somali seeking refuge in another country.
