Children on board the Ocean Viking
Jul 16, 11:03 AM
"This is a collage of the sound of children between the ages of 3 and 9, speaking in various West African dialects, playing with my radio equipment onboard the charity rescue ship the Ocean Viking on the 28th of December 2022.
"The day before, the children along with their guardians had been rescued from a dangerously overcrowded boat in the waters hundreds of kilometres north of Libya. The children are now in Europe. This audio has been edited to remove names and identifying details."
Recorded by Frey Lindsay.
Part of the Migration Sounds project, the world’s first collection of the sounds of human migration.
