This podcast puts migrant voices at the center—sharing powerful testimonies of resilience, dignity, and belonging from workers in Jordan. From Mercy’s story of turning hardship into solidarity, to Renalou and Jeromel reflecting on migration’s impact on families, to Messi and Fidaa’s dialogue on respect in the household—each episode invites you into lives that are rarely heard but deeply moving.

In Lebanon, after years of intensive agriculture and the use of chemicals, there is a growing need and interest in safer and environmentally friendly alternatives. Emerging from years of academic research, biopesticides have been approved by Lebanese authorities, but are still not officially registered due to the lack of regulatory procedures.

Behind the alarming statistics on pesticide use, lies a rarely acknowledged reality: agricultural female workers and small-scale farmers are trapped in a system that sacrifices their health and dignity in the name of profit. Their testimonies reveal a daily struggle marked by grueling working conditions, exposure to chemicals without adequate protection, and the resulting tragic consequences. Exposing these realities aims to spark collective awareness and advocate for a fairer agricultural model-one that upholds human dignity and preserves the environment.
