We are a Community Interest Company (CIC) dedicated to creating a platform where migrant women from the Global Majority in the UK can share their narratives through diverse art forms. By weaving a participatory arts approach into research and engagement strategies, we create a dynamic platform for collaborative projects where women are active co-creators, having their voices and experiences as the bedrock of our artistic endeavors.

We use participatory arts as a tool for dialogue, empowerment, production of knowledge and data. Our projects aim to contribute to a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by migrant women and to ignite conversations that can lead to real, positive societal changes.

Our mission is to place migrant women at the center stage of conversations.

Testimonies

“It was one of the best things that ever happened to me. I had the opportunity to challenge myself and learn something that without MinA I might never have had the chance to do. The whole creative process really strengthened me and made me see new horizons and possibilities.”

A participant

“From this experience I take the maxim that “we are not alone” and that all forms of work and living are important and should be recognised.”

A participant

“MinA was a unique experience, I expressed myself and spoke without fear.”

“Collaborating with MinA has been an amazing experience. Not only are they an inspiring organisation doing wonderful transformative work with migrant women, but they are extremely professional and incredibly easy to work with. I have learnt so much from them.”
