Toolkit for working with migrant participants in co-produced research projects in ways that encourage their creative writing and enhance their role in shaping knowledge

This project aims to bring together researchers and community artists and facilitators in order to discuss and develop ways of working with migrant participants which enhance their role in shaping the research narrative by supporting and encouraging creative writing. In this way migrants are supported to become active collaborators, authors and co-producers, have more agency over the research that will be produced with and by them rather than about them. This aims to empower them to make their voices and experiences heard as well as produce a more nuanced and inclusive discourse about the human experience of migration in the 21st century.
