‘Migration Diaries’ attempts to curate stories of migrants’ lives and worlds beyond the binaries of tragedy and resilience, through a revisting of their experiences. We hope to further contextualise these insights within broader academic, policy and popular discourses on distress migration.

The aim of this website is to experiment with creating capacities for democratized narratives on migration.
