IOM’s Cinema Arena: Bangladesh

The photographs in the carousel below were taken as part of IOM’s Cinema Arena project in Bangladesh. They capture school sessions where students explored migration through games, songs, and open dialogue, as well as evening moments when villages gathered for open-air screenings that encouraged reflection on the journeys people undertake and the choices that shape their futures.

Each image highlights the power of cinema to bridge distances, deepen understanding, and promote safer, more informed migration decisions.
