How would you compare your life today to the lives of those studied in your project?
I could say that we are privileged to study and acknowledge their significant lives and work. We live in a place that's safe and well organized, as for some of the lives studied start poorly and work for their right to live. Their stories are very inspiring and fascinating, they end proudly.
