Displaced Voices is an online and fully open access journal launched in 2020. Produced and edited by displaced activists, scholars, researchers and practitioners at the Living Refugee Archive based at the University of East London. We seek to engage with issues pertaining the intersection of refugee and migration studies with participatory archive and oral history methodologies and the role of cultural heritage in relation to the experience of displacement and bordering. Broad themes include refugee and migration history; cultural and intangible history; community memory and notions of identity; the role of archives and oral history in documenting the refugee and migration experiences. Our aim is to take the journal readership beyond academia in support of encouraging greater access to enable effective knowledge sharing.
