You Don't Know How Long You Are Going To Be A Refugee
It's World Refugee Day, and John and Joseph's stories have been circling in my head since we filmed in March. I learned so much from what they shared.
We were filming for our friends at Leaf Global Fintech. As a global financial tech startup, Leaf had tons of facts and stats, but as they continued to pitch their mobile banking solution for refugees, they realized that they needed something to help investors connect with the human element of their work. They needed to tell a story.
