| 14 | The annual Chaos Communication Congress, held by Europe’s largest Hacker | ||
| 15 | organization Chaos Computer Club (CCC), is this year presented with the | ||
| 16 | theme „[Gated | ||
| 17 | Communities](http://ccc.de/de/updates/2015/chaos-computer-club-ladt-ein-zum-32c3)“. | ||
| 18 | We are proud to welcome Somalian born Fatuma Musa Afrah as our keynote | ||
| 19 | speaker. | ||
| 20 | |||
| 21 | As a child, Fatuma was displaced and found refuge in Kenia, where after | ||
| 22 | studying developmental aid, she worked with kids in a refugee camp in | ||
| 23 | Dadaab, located at the border between Kenia and Somalia. Her work’s main | ||
| 24 | focus is on women and children. | ||
| 25 | |||
| 26 | In 2014 she – again – was forced out of Kenia and found a new home in | ||
| 27 | Germany, where, after living in the towns of Eisenhüttenstadt and | ||
| 28 | Bestensee, she now works and lives in Berlin. She continues her | ||
| 29 | humanitarian work and soon helped out as a voluntary English teacher in | ||
| 30 | a school. | ||
| 31 | |||
| 32 | In her keynote address, Fatuma Afrah will talk about her life, being | ||
| 33 | displaced twice. Combined with her perspective as professional refugee | ||
| 34 | aid worker, her story will allow an unique insight in refugee’s lives | ||
| 35 | and struggles. She will talk about her confusion arriving in Germany and | ||
| 36 | how to adapt to even the most basic concepts of taking a train and | ||
| 37 | paying for it. But we will also hear stories about her first encounter | ||
| 38 | with liberality. | ||
| 39 | |||
| 40 | Fatuma speaks of herself as a „newcomer“ to our society. It is us who | ||
| 41 | should offer our knowledge of everyday life and our help – not only as a | ||
| 42 | community of hackers. It is our goal to enable integration, using our | ||
| 43 | experiences, share our freedoms and to actively offer our support to | ||
| 44 | „newcomers“ like Fatuma. | ||
