The project will undertake ethnographies of heterogeneous heritage-making practices and sites along migration routes from Africa to Europe, across national and continental boundaries, focusing on the political agency and relationalities of vulnerable migrants and their advocates | – Asylum seekers and refugees – Citizenry |
