Responding to the Ukraine crisis

We will launch a new chapter of No Stranger Place in 2022 and are looking for people to take part. Have you been affected by the war in Ukraine or been forced to flee your home for other reasons? Are you hosting refugees in your home? We want to hear from you!

We are based in Berlin and travelling throughout Germany, Poland and Moldova, working to make No Stranger Place as inclusive as possible by reflecting diverse experiences, nationalities and backgrounds.

We are planning new exhibitions and will publish the stories we gather on our website and in the media later this year, thereby giving our audience the opportunity to learn about the experiences of both the hosts and those forced to flee.

To take part, or find out more, please send us a brief email, text message or give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you!
