FMR 75 on ‘Dangerous journeys’ now online

The latest issue of Forced Migration Review, on ‘Dangerous journeys: Saving lives and responding to missing migrants and refugees’, is now online.

Dangerous journeys are taken every day by refugees and other migrants, often with tragic consequences. This issue of FMR explores how more lives can be saved on land and sea and how disappearances can be prevented or resolved. Articles highlight the growing constraints on search and rescue through criminalisation and ‘bureaucratisation’; how rescue operates in different locations – from the mountains to the desert; the role of high-level diplomacy and regional cooperation in preventing deaths and disappearances and on-the-ground approaches to identification; the particular perils of new migration routes – and more.

Read the issue here.

FMR is a print and online magazine that brings together diverse, knowledgeable authors – especially those with lived experience of forced displacement – to foster practical learning and discussion that can improve outcomes for forcibly displaced people. It is hosted at the Refugee Studies Centre.
