Details

Venezuela has been featuring heavily in the news lately as political change takes place. However, Venezuela is facing a humanitarian, health and economic crisis. We have invited Healing Venezuela, a UK based charity, to discuss with us the current state of health in Venezuela. We will also be screening "Simón", a short film by Diego Vicentini that narrates the story of a Venezuelan university student and freedom fighter who seeks asylum in the United States.
