Conversations on Migration: The Power of Collective Voice



This project examines complexities of the question of contemporary migration by employing methodological processes that involve building relationships and engaging in conversations within a group of women who migrated to Australia from Chile, Kenya, Iran, Vietnam, and Greece. Over the duration of the project, these women have developed a commitment to conceptualise experiences, both individually and collectively, becoming public through filmmaking.The project intends to open up civic engagement and participation, generating a body politic in direct relationship with social and political realities, strengthening the capacity to resist against capitalist hegemony while shaping political imagination.
