  • Summary

  • "This is a casual interview recorded with Astoun, a rescue worker with SOS Méditerranée, on board the charity ship the Ocean Viking.

    "Originally from Syria, Astoun travelled irregularly to Europe in the wake of the Syrian civil war, and after some time in Europe decided he wanted to use his maritime background to assist others in similar situations.

    "Astoun spoke about his motivation to help others, as well as how the work made him reflect on his own journey as a refugee. This interview was recorded onboard the Ocean Viking on the 26th December 2022, as the ship headed south to the "rescue zone" above Libya's waters."

    Recorded by Frey Lindsay.

    Part of the Migration Sounds project, the world’s first collection of the sounds of human migration.
