Abstract: This edited volume presents a range of interdisciplinary voices, actively engaged with contemporary practices, policies and interventions with migrant and refugee communities in the UK and internationally. While one per cent of the world’s population have fled their homes as a result of conflict or persecution, the UK and many of the world’s wealthiest nations have sought to bypass international obligations on asylum, securitising the issue of migration and creating hostile environments for those seeking safety. Drawing directly on the voices and experiences of refugees, activists and professional practitioners, this collection examines the complexities of migration and the possibilities for innovative and compassionate interventions.
