This recently constituted network of academics at the University of Liverpool is characterised by its strong interdisciplinary character and pro-active engagement with external stakeholders, and has already held several events on refugee-related matters. We would be very happy to have you with us that evening, to celebrate our network and the vibrant refugee community of Liverpool and the Northwest. The launch event will include a theatre play – Asylum Monologues – by the human rights actors group Ice & Fire. Those of you familiar with the work of this group will know how powerful their art is.Time: 17:00 – 19:00
