The Migration Blanket - Climate Solidarity

As climate change continues to displace communities globally, The Migration Blanket – Climate Solidarity film shows how women’s lives are being affected. The art movie is also a show of solidarity between girls and women in the UK and the Commonwealth countries, calling for a greener planet where nobody is left behind and an end to violence against women. Described by politicians as a ‘powerful film’ the short features over 400 pieces of unique artwork created during the pandemic in extraordinary circumstances. Refugee, migrant and marginalised women living in camps, orphanages and other temporary accommodation are given a voice and present their concerns, as do migrant and refugee women from the UK, who worked closely with award-winning British Artist and Activist and filmmaker, Salma Zulfiqar on the film project.
