 is part of CHASE Dialogues, a discussion series foregrounding the significant roles the arts and humanities have played and continue to play in big discussions today.

How can storytelling be deployed as a tool to resist dehumanisation and participate in political critique? Can immersive performance decolonise discourse on culture and migration? What can experimental visual arts tell us about experiences of diaspora and migration? How can the spatial politics of music production affect shifting conceptions of identity? In what ways can the arts and humanities inform policy making on international migration?

Panellists will discuss how art and cultural production of various forms can affect representation, agency, resistance, celebration and politics in relation to migration and culture.
