DESTINED TO HELP OTHERS

Teame arrived in Aversa at the end of February 2018 with the first group of refugees brought to Italy from Ethiopia, through the Humanitarian Corridors Program that year.
Escaping from the Eritrean dictatorship in 2010, Teame spent 8 years in May-Aini refugee camp in the Tigray plateau of northern Ethiopia. During those years, he had the opportunity to study Social Anthropology. With this and his good knowledge in English, Teame found work as an interpreter and eventually, as a teacher with some of the NGOs working in the camp. 
These experiences were of great use to the start of his journey in Italy. In fact, less than a year after his arrival, Teame earned the opportunity to carry out Civil Service with Caritas in Aversa – a role that supported many other immigrants and his fellow compatriots.   
But he wasn’t able to finish this year of service as an NGO, Copi International, offered him a position working with UNHCR as an interpreter, but this time in Niger.
Here you can find a short video-telephone meeting between Human Lines’ Aisling and Teame in Niger. He shares with us what it means for a refugee who has finally arrived in Italy to return to Africa to help other migrants with a similar personal history. In this short chat, Teame tells with great simplicity, almost in a way as if it were something of little consequence, the experience he lives today – for this we are grateful.
