International symposium on Participatory Research in Migration, Community, and Aesthetics: Exploring Aesthetic Methodologies (WP5)

Date: June 11, 2024
Time: 9:30 AM – 5:00 PM
Location:  London

Welcome to our one-day symposium on Participatory Research in Migration, Community, and Aesthetics: Exploring Aesthetic Methodologies. This symposium is part of a research project (2020-2024) generously funded by Nordforsk in partnership with NGOs and facilitators. It is the result of a joint effort between the Baltic Art Center Visby, Compass Collective, and Kingston University.

Our keynote speakers for the event include Emily Miller from the Migration Museum, Professor Nishat Awan from University College London, and Professor Lucy Orta from Centre for Sustainable Fashion at UAL London College of Fashion (LCF). Our presenters include Dr. John Cussan, Anna Norberg, Helena Selder, Leah Gayer, Victor Rios, Dr. Mary Kelly, and Niki Kohandel among others.

During different sessions today we explore how aesthetic methodologies can intertwine with participatory research to address pressing issues in migration, community development, and aesthetics. Researchers, academics, and practitioners will share their insights and innovative approaches throughout the day.

Sessions will cover a range of topics. "Theoretical Foundations and Cultural Impact" will explore advancements in participatory and aesthetic research methodologies and their impact on cultural identity, social integration, and the challenges faced by migrants and refugees. "Art, Engagement, and Empowerment" will showcase participatory art projects that enhance community engagement, social cohesion, and empowerment, with a focus on interdisciplinary methods. "Ethics and Effectiveness in Participatory Research" will address ethical considerations and assess the effectiveness and limitations of participatory research using aesthetic methodologies. Finally, "Innovative Case Studies" will present innovative applications and case studies that integrate aesthetic and participatory methodologies in addressing community and migration issues.
