Did you know that some dying or abandoned villages throughout Europe are given a new life by migrants?


Probably not, because the media is full of negative stories about immigration. But, across Europe, there are inspiring projects of migrants bringing new life to villages that were on the edge of disappearing. Newcomers find a home, and in turn, these villages rediscover their heartbeat—schools stay open, shops can thrive again, and communities grow stronger.


I am keen to make these inspiring stories known. Also, I want to make all useful information available to others.

A different story of migration—one of hope, rural revival, community, and second chances needs to be heard!
