/in /by

After being detained in Yarlswood immigration removal centre, Pinar Aksu continued to campaign and speak about detention. She completed an undergraduate degree in community development and a Masters degree in human rights and international politics. Pinar works as a project coordinator, and uses theatre, workshops, grassroots organising and community campaigning as methods to raise awareness about asylum, refugee and immigration related issues.

You are locked behind the wall, and your rights as a child, your rights as a human being are taken away from you.
