Our Stories
Our Stories.
At Pathways, we believe storytelling is a powerful tool for social justice and change.
These films and stories share the lived experiences of young people who have journeyed through displacement, conflict, and exclusion — and who found safety, community, and belonging with us.
Each story is unique. Each voice matters. Together, they remind us that lived experience is not just testimony but truth — shaping how we understand the world and the systems around us.
