Emily: Together with my class, we visited the Democracy Workshop in Parliament today, and Doaa told us her story.
Doaa: Today we talked about democracy, politics, human rights, women’s rights.
We exchanged ideas with the students, and it was also very interesting for me.
I wanted to tell the students to have hope and never give up.
Emily: I was very touched by her story and how she can now still stand here [in front of us], laugh and tell this story, even if it is of course sometimes difficult and there is still this trauma. But she can still lead a normal life and that just touched me a lot. It just touched me a lot that you can just overcome anything with hope.
