This workshop provides an insight into Refugee Studies research, its strengths and it limitations. It is aimed at postgraduate researchers with an interest in work which draws on Refugee Studies research, and gives participants the opportunity to engage in a discussion on Refugees in relation to Human Rights through practical examples. The workshop exposes postgraduate researchers to academic research which aims to work for the rights of refugees and other forced migrants, currently striving to reflect less on the theoretical significance of refugees and more on the documentation of empirical examples of displacement. Participants will gain familiarity with the interdisciplinary objectives and methodological aims of Refugee Theory and its institutional context, and they will analyse and debate a recent refugee-inspired film which puts theory to the test.
