I am leading a group putting together a European research bid on the
theme of 'Migration and "the Visual"'. We have partners in a number of
'West European' countries and we are seeking a partner in East/East
Central Europe (Estonia, Czech Republic or Slovakia).
If you are interested, and meet the criteria outlined below, please
contact me, as soon as possible, at: [log in to unmask]
Potential partners must:
1) be in a tenured post in an academic institution which is recognised
by one of your countries research funding bodies (ETF, ASCR or MHEST)
2) have a track record of research and publication in the field of
migration and/or visual studies (this can be broadly defined and does
not have to be extensive)
3) be able and willing to conduct research and/or conduct practice on at
least one of the following areas: participatory video production with
migrants; production and circulation of digital images by migrants;
archiving migrants' visual artefacts.
4) be competent in written and spoken English
We have some funding available to cover some of the expenses required to
attend a planning workshop to be held on the Paisley campus of the
University of the West of Scotland (near to Glasgow Airport) on Friday
14th of November.
