"For me freedom would be to be able to defend myself be able to stand up for myself, be able to speak my mind without holding back."

In addition to KLABU, Mo’s City Rights App helps newcomers in Amsterdam navigate the city and better understand how their new home works. Like KLABU Amsterdam, this helps with a smoother integration and a greater feeling of belonging.
"I want to change the narrative of asylum-seekers being labelled as liabilities instead of assets. We don't only come with a desire for a new life, we come with culture, good food, spirit, and an amazing way of life."
