    Celebrating Sanctuary, Celebrating Success

    This collection of individuals' stories celebrates the success of people who have fled persecution and made their homes in Scotland.

    The stories trace over 100 years of people finding sanctuary in Scotland and highlight the root causes of asylum: the conflicts and human rights abuses of the 20th century that have forced so many to flee their homes, unable to return.
