Migration Podcasts

While looking for something else for my planning for Monday I came across this set of podcasts from the Migration Museum.

The Migration Podcasts have been created and compiled ready for sharing. They are hosted on Soundcloud which makes them quite easy to share.

They are on a range of themes, and can be added to the list of possible podcasts for the morning commute.

What would it take for you to leave your home? To leave everything and everyone you know to move to another country and start again. Over the past 400 years, that’s exactly what millions of British people have been doing. Today, the news headlines are full of stories of migrants trying to come to Britain. But for most of this country’s history, it’s actually been the other way round. And Britain’s emigration rate remains one of the highest in the world. Why has such a small island nation produced so many migrants and how have they shaped the world we live in today? In our new podcast series, Mukti Jain Campion speaks to people who are shedding new light on this often hidden history.

Listen and subscribe to Departures on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts by searching for ‘Departures 400 Years of Emigration’.

This podcast accompanies the Migration Museum’s exhibition Departures: 400 Years of Emigration from Britain.


They are presented by Mukti Jain Campion.
