A proposito di questo titolo
Integration is often treated as a checklist.
Learn the language.
Follow the rules.
Fit in quietly.
But real integration doesn’t work that way.
In this episode of Builders of the Broken Bazaar, Dr Tabish Zaman speaks with Montasir Mohamed — entrepreneur, business leader, and refugee-turned-citizen in Finland — about what integration actually looks like when it moves beyond policy and into everyday life.
This is not a conversation about charity.
It is not about compliance.
It is about agency, responsibility, trust, and belonging — on both sides.
Together, they explore:
• Why integration fails when only one side carries the burden
• How language becomes dignity rather than assimilation
• Why waiting for stability keeps people stuck
• How fear — not culture — blocks belonging
• Why refugees are framed as dependents instead of contributors
• How entrepreneurship becomes survival, not ambition
• What Finland gets right — and where it still struggles
• Why policies can open doors, but people must walk through them
🎙 “Integration isn’t something that happens to you. It’s something you build.”
This episode challenges the idea that inclusion can be delivered by systems alone.
Because belonging is not granted.
It is built — together.
