We invite contributions in the form of artifacts, poetry or other creative writings, performances, games, collective activities, and visual expressions. Contributions should aim to facilitate collective engagement rooted towards co-producing a new lexicon for feeling the polycrisis. #Environment

This event is a culmination of long informal conversations with those directly impacted by ongoing funding cuts in refugee contexts. It also draws from our work/s in migration studies and refugee-led initiatives in Kenya. Register now at: uni-ms.zoom-x.de/meeting/regist… #Humanitarianism
