refugee work
"Everything we do here for Iran gets through.
I get hundreds of messages directly from Iran, just one of my videos for Iran has been seen over 4 million times, which means that the Iranians are watching.
They look at us with hope and we have to see them too." - Darya
Darya is on the board of the refugee and community work "Licht e.V.", which her parents founded. Over the last 17 years she has accompanied many refugees on their new start in Germany and has since been using her music and platform to campaign for human rights, women's rights, and oppressed and persecuted Christians.
Building a bridge between Iranian and German culture, sharing the history and voice of oppressed Iranians with the West, be it through her music, or through speeches and community work, is one of her areas of activity.
