In this collaboration, the people involved aimed to co-create meaningful knowledge on the challenges and resilience of queer refugees and the role of community engaged scholarship. For this opening event, Fabian Holle and Noa Bawits will present some preliminary findings of their research projects. There will also be an open mic with spoken word and poetry performances, hosted by Sunni Lamin. The event will finish with a panel in which various co-creators of the LIMBO project will reflect on the LIMBO process.
