Little Amal is the 12 foot puppet of  a 10 year old Syrian refugee child at the heart of The Walk.  She has become a global symbol of human rights, especially those of refugees. 

Since July 2021, Amal has travelled to 181 towns and cities in 18 countries and been welcomed by two million people on the street and by tens of millions online.   500 events unique to each community that she visits have been created for her by thousands of artists and civil society and faith leaders.

Her journeys are festivals of art and hope that draw attention to the huge numbers of children fleeing war, violence and persecution, each with their own story. Her urgent message to the world is “Don’t forget about us”.

Little Amal’s journeys are produced by The Walk Productions in association with Handspring Puppet Company.
