migration collective
London
Founded in April 2016, Migration Collective is a group of dynamic and creative
women based in London, each holding academic interest in and personal
experiences of migration. Our unique projects, events and activities tackle the
intersection of art, academia and action in order to challenge the mainstream
rhetoric on migration. Aims and objectives Underpinning our work is the idea
that human rights are relational and therefore, must be participated in and
shared to be realised. This means we focus on inclusion - what is shared between
rather than what separates people - and a new rights-based approach to
migration. Our work is underpinned by the following principles: Utilising the
power of art and expression to examine the experience, reality and issues within
migration, displacement and diaspora Bringing together people of different
backgrounds and communities around the intersection of art, academia and action
Creating the basis of a community from a hyper-local to international level Get
in touch! We are always happy to collaborate with new groups and individuals on
interesting projects. If you are passionate about migration issues and have an
idea you’d like to share, or if you’d like to get involved and support our work,
