For this special takeover, Human Hive co-founder Darren Abrahams takes the reins and hosts an episode of the art27 ReSounding Podcast! Featuring Jennie Spears & Bemeriki Bisimwa Dusabe.

Art27 is a brilliant platform for artists, arts educators and arts organizations working with refugees and asylum seekers in Europe and beyond. 

Darren has a fascinating conversation with two organizations that use gardening, plants, food, and permaculture to create sustainability and resilience for refugees living in camps in East Africa and Northern Iraq/Kurdistan.

Bemeriki Bisimwa Dusabe is the founder of the Rwamwanja Rural Foundation, working in Uganda to create farming and sustainable food solutions within refugee camps. He is an educator in the field, leading training for young refugees to develop permaculture gardens.

Jennie Spears represents The Lemon Tree Trust, an organization transforming refugee camps in Iraqi Kurdistan by focussing on garden making, cooking, and working with the lands as a practice of security, culture, and community.
