Book: 50 Migration Stories You Should Know

"50 Migration Stories You Should Know" by Helvetiq tells the inspiring life stories of 50 people who came to Switzerland from all over the world and left their mark here. Each one-page biography offers insight into the lives of historical and contemporary figures who have shattered stereotypes, shown courage, and helped shape Switzerland. Alongside well-known names like Albert Einstein, Audrey Hepburn, Charlie Chaplin, and Xherdan Shaqiri, readers will also meet lesser-known heroes and heroines who are fighting extremism, founding new companies, carrying out social projects, or building cultural bridges. Each story is accompanied by a color illustration by Swiss illustrator Mireille Lachausse. An empowering, diverse, and important book about migration, identity, courage, and the people without whom Switzerland would not be the same.
