From Syria to Lebanon to Canada
Manal Agha’s journey began in Syria, continued through Lebanon, and eventually led her to Canada. Seeking safety and a brighter future for herself, Manal relocated to Peterborough, where she found a welcoming community and a new beginning. With support from the New Canadians Centre, she embraced her new life, learning English and building a strong sense of belonging. Manal’s story is one of resilience, adaptation, and new beginnings.
This event is organised in collaboration with the Peterborough Public Library.
