University of York Migration Network is hosting 'Speaking Up, Not Talking Down' event alongside their third annual Ideas Salon, this year being part of the Refugee Week York. In this event, refugees and asylum seekers will be joined by lawyers, therapists, interpreters, humanitarian aid representatives and researchers from the University of York Migration Network (MigNet) to discuss the challenges of reporting and representing the experience of persecution, trauma and finding sanctuary in the face of the enduring hostile environment of Britain’s immigration system.
