About

25 Million Sparks takes readers inside the Za'atari refugee camp to follow the stories of three courageous Syrian women entrepreneurs: Yasmina, a wedding shop and salon owner creating moments of celebration in Za'atari, Malak, a young artist infusing color and beauty in her adoptive community, and Asma, a social entrepreneur with a storytelling initiative enriching children's lives throughout the camp. Anchored by these three inspiring stories, as well as accompanying artwork and poetry created by Malak and Asma, the narrative expands from the intimacies of Za'atari to explore the broader refugee entrepreneurship phenomenon in more than 20 camps, cities, and towns across the globe. What emerges is a tale of power, determination, and dignity - of lighting the brightest sparks of joy, even when the rest of the world sees only the darkness.
