Description
This panel opens up a space within the ecologies of migration, broadly construed, to query when, how, and why space of migration might emerge. It challenges traditional renderings of where people on the move might find space while recognizing that known institutions, and their governance structures play a role in generating this discussion. The panel pays tribute to this mode of governance while seeking to prompt a wider conversation that wonders at what, if any, materialities are created as people on the move travel, and reside (either on their own terms or otherwise) in and through space. The panel pushes its participants to imagines the relational nature of these encounters, incorporating both human and non-human encounters, encapsulating the legacies that emerge when lived experiences does not culminate in death, but rather, remains open to the possibility of stories that emerge in death and dying.
