About Us

Beyond Borders Refuge is a platform dedicated to amplifying the voices of refugees, raising awareness about their struggles, and fostering solidarity to support their integration into new communities. We believe that no individual should be defined by borders but rather by their resilience, potential, and fundamental human rights. Through storytelling, advocacy, and community engagement, we aim to create a space where refugees can find hope, resources, and a sense of belonging.

This initiative was founded by Mehmet Salih Filitoglu, a Global Law and Transnational Legal Studies student in Turin, who has dedicated years to working on refugee-related projects and advocating for their rights. His passion for justice and equality has driven him to create a platform that not only shares the experiences of displaced individuals but also fosters a global network of solidarity. By shedding light on the struggles and triumphs of refugees, Beyond Borders Refuge seeks to break down misconceptions and build bridges of understanding between communities.

At Beyond Borders Refuge, we are driven by the belief that awareness and empathy lead to meaningful action. Refugees often face immense challenges, from legal uncertainties and barriers to education to difficulties in social integration. By sharing their stories, providing valuable resources, and facilitating connections between refugees and supporters, we strive to empower individuals to rebuild their lives with dignity.

Our mission goes beyond simply raising awarenessโ€”we actively work toward change. We encourage people from all backgrounds to take part in this movement, whether by volunteering, educating themselves and others, or supporting refugee-led initiatives. Each voice, each action, and each moment of understanding contributes to a world where refugees are not just seen, but embraced and supported.

We started Beyond Borders Refuge with the goal of reaching a wide audience and building a strong network of individuals committed to making a difference. Together, we can challenge the narratives that isolate refugees, amplify voices that need to be heard, and work towards a future where no one is left behind.

Join us in standing in solidarity, fostering change, and creating a world where borders do not define humanity.
