Exploring Ukraine’s displacement crisis: insights and implications
The event aims to critically examine the multifaceted displacement crisis stemming from Russia’s war in Ukraine, with particular emphasis on the experiences of displaced populations both within and outside Ukraine. By bringing together leading scholars in this field, the panel will explore key dimensions of the displacement crisis, including the socio-economic, psychological, and geopolitical impacts on Ukraine, its neighbouring countries, and the wider international community. The event seeks to foster an interdisciplinary dialogue that contributes to a deeper understanding of the migration processes precipitated by the war, with a view to informing both academic discourse and policy development. Ultimately, the event aspires to amplify the voices of displaced Ukrainians, whose perspectives have often been underrepresented in global conversations, thereby enriching scholarly and practical approaches to forced migration.
