Hart Island Project
Hart Island – Potter’s Field was first used by the City of New York as a public cemetery in 1869 for the burial of people who died indigent or whose bodies were unclaimed after their death having been purchased by the Department of Charities and Correction for the purpose of setting up a workhouse for older boys from the House of Refuge on Randall’s Island.
Burials were carried out by inmates of neighbouring Blackwell’s Island and Riker’s Island penitentiaries until the COVID-19 pandemic ended the use of inmate labour on April 3 2020. The 131-acre uninhabited island was intermittently used as a prison and homeless shelter until 1967 and is the only public cemetery in New York City. Prior to the use of Hart Island as a burial ground it had been a site where potters collected high quality, deeply red clay for the production of ceramics.
As of May 15th 2021 people with close ties to those buried on the island are once again able to visit. The Hart Island Project COVID-19 Initiative is an attempt to help the larger community to locate the grave sites of people they know and support the families and friends of people buried in City Cemetery. Through engaged story telling the project hopes to enlarge the meaning of this landscape and to make it an inclusive rather than shameful resting place. A public charity incorporated in 2011 the project maintains an on-line database which is the foundation for a system of storytelling and visualisation called the Traveling Cloud Museum in an attempt to preserve the histories of those buried for present and future generations.

THE HUB for refugees on the Greek island of Kos
Located in Kos town, The Hub aims to support displaced people through their initial stages in Greece. Our primary focus is to cover gaps in the basic needs of refugees and to support them with their integration, as this is crucial for their long-term well-being.
As it stands, the basic needs of refugees are not being met and they face numerous obstacles throughout their early stages in the country. For example, there is a considerable lack of hygiene items provided inside the camp, so we work to supplement this. Additionally, once granted asylum, people are expelled from the camp and no longer receive governmental aid to cover their fundamental requirements. People self-accommodate where possible, though some experience homelessness as high levels of tourism on Kos make affordable accommodation extremely difficult to find. These conditions mean that many people experience demotivation, social exclusion, and a decline in mental health. To prevent this, our Hub offers a diverse array of support and a friendly space to spend the day.
Despite Kos being the second-largest entry point for refugees in the Greek islands, we are currently the only organisation on the island addressing basic needs outside of the closed and controlled camp. This makes what we do crucial, and we currently reach approximately 1800 people per month.
