The 5th episode of #YouthCast, will be an interesting discussion between young persons with refugee background that grew up and live in Cyprus. Dealing with the difficulties of their journey with optimism and strength, they speak about their new country, the happy and sad memories, shedding light to the interesting sides of the cypriot society. The aim of the discussion is to embrace the versatile character of the modern Cyprus and to highlight the difference that the adoption of effective integration policies can have on all of our lives.
