Malene Alleyne

Malene Alleyne is the founder of Freedom Imaginaries, an organization advocating for the rights of Haitians fleeing violence and civil unrest in their homeland. She has been vocal about the urgent need for the Jamaican government to consider asylum for those escaping the deteriorating conditions in Haiti, where gang warfare and systemic violence have displaced hundreds of thousands. Alleyne's advocacy is particularly focused on the plight of women and children who are disproportionately affected by the ongoing humanitarian crisis.
