Summary
This international workshop (SDU, 25–26 Sept. 2025) brings together scholars to explore how refugee agency can be studied across history and the social sciences. Through keynotes and case studies from Denmark and Germany, the event sheds light on how refugees have acted and negotiated their lives, aiming to deepen our understanding of forced migration and inspire future research.
