FMR…
…presents concise, accessible articles by policymakers, practitioners, researchers and displaced people in order to share information, experience and recommendations on issues affecting refugees, internally displaced people and stateless people. Each issue has a feature theme plus a range of general articles.
FMR aims to:
- bridge the gap between research and practice
- provide a forum for the voices of displaced people
- highlight lesser-known (or little covered) displacement crises
- promote wider public knowledge of, and respect for, the UN Refugee Convention and the Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement
- contribute to improving policy and practice for people affected by forced migration.
