Because every story is unique!
Migrants - e.g. students, refugees, asylum-seekers, economic migrants - cook the food, and their stories are shared and spread together with the masterpiece they create. Because every story is unique, and we would like this uniqueness to be known by everyone: how migrants came to Tampere, what is the driving reason that made them end up in here, and what is it like to live in this community. And the most important of all, what made them to stay here.
