Ways of Telling: The Sea is the Limit

MigNet IDEAS SALON 2 

Building upon our first Ideas Salon, where we discussed the work conducted by MIgNet in collaboration with our ESRC Impact Research fellows, Counterpoints Arts on the role and impact of the arts and culture in migration studies and impact upon social and cultural policy - we will focus on three key emerging strands in Ideas Salon 2: 

• The role of the arts in fostering shared learning about migration, forced displacement, belonging with reference to: the exhibition The Sea is the Limit at YAG, the work of Journalist Ismail Einashe and the experiences and expertise of Shpresa an organisation working with young migrants from Albania.
• What methods can we draw upon and collaborations can we develop to better understand culture/heritage/’who are we’?   
• What is the role of language and language choices in our participatory and collaborative work?
