Roundtable discussion - Seeing is Believing: stories of forced migration through the lens of creative technologies
Forced migration is by no means a new phenomenon in world history, but it is in the modern world that it is the most visible: new technologies amplify the voices of the marginalised and enable new techniques for engaging these narratives with the public.

We are honoured to host our speakers to discuss their work with modern creative technologies to engage with both the legacies and ongoing realities of forced migrations across the globe.

Speakers
Professor Navtej Purewal (Researcher VR Border Crossings project)
Dr Sonja Wolf (Director of The Vertical Border)
Dr Benjamin Worku-Dix (Founding Director of PositivesNegatives)
Chair: Bidisha Mamata (Broadcaster, journalist, and artist)
