Project description
A platform for past and present migration narratives
To assist in the development of concrete actions to manage migration – moving away from an emergency response model – the EU-funded ITHACA project is creating a novel digital archive (the ITHACA platform). This new database will feature past and present migration narratives as well as media tools and applications for researchers, policymakers, practitioners and migrants. The ITHACA project deepens the various forms of narratives on and by migrants, considering them as agents of social change, historically retracing causes, transformations, and effects of migration narratives, and highlighting silenced voices. Bringing together partners from Europe, Africa, Eurasia and the Middle East, the project’s overall aim is to raise awareness, inform the public debate, and disseminate recommendations to improve policies, empowerment, inclusion and participation.
