In this episode, I speak with our fantastic viber Sandra Okori who is a 31-year-old social worker from Uganda but is currently completing a master’s degree at the University of Innsbruck in Austria and studying peace, security, development and international conflict transformation. Sandra’s thesis investigates the integration of African migrants in Austria.

Sandra and I vibe around her background from Uganda and navigating Austrian (Vienna) spaces as an international student. She speaks on the fear of the dominant group practising discriminatory behaviour towards the "other" i.e., African migrants. Some examples of this behaviour include racism in healthcare and language barriers. Sandra perceives rehumanisation as a way to remove prejudices towards minority groups and accept people's differences for society to grow.  Please tune in if you'd like to flip and vibe with us around African migration and integration.
