Conversations with Communities: Spotlight on African Migrants in Scotland

Our Rights Stories

In this episode, we explore the barriers African migrants face in the UK workforce, particularly the disconnect between their educational qualifications and the limited opportunities available to them. Our guest Esther from JustCitizens and Adeniyi from African Connect share personal insights on the struggles highly skilled individuals, including those with PhDs, face when they are pushed into the care sector as the "easy way out" of the system.

We also discuss the broader issues of education, mental health, and employment within racialised communities in Scotland.
Tune in to hear how we can change the narrative and create a more inclusive system together.
