People on the move are always in place through their bodies, and by being in place, they co-constitute these places. Throughout their journeys, even those displaced become emplaced through sensing, navigating, claiming and ultimately, transforming the places that make up their journey.
For this workshop, we asked anthropologists, geographers and migration scholars to think about migrant involvement in place-making in two ways: through re-considering the open and dynamic character of places; and through re-conceptualizing the places and place-making practices that often remain invisible in migration research.
