Forced Migration Review brings together diverse, knowledgeable authors – especially those with lived experience of forced displacement – to foster practical learning and discussion that can improve outcomes for forcibly displaced people.
For over 30 years, FMR has catalysed dialogue between practitioners, academics and policymakers about emergent issues in migration and displacement.
Our free flagship magazine is accessible to a global audience in English, Arabic, French and Spanish, online and in print. Related audio/visual content is available online.

FMR prioritises inclusion and impact. Our programmes put these priorities into practice.
Forced Migration Review is a semi-autonomous organisation housed within the University of Oxford’s Refugee Studies Centre. Its flagship magazine, also called Forced Migration Review, was first published in 1987 as the Refugee Practice Network newsletter, and relaunched in 1998 under the current name.
Forced Migration Review is supported exclusively through the generous contributions of our public and private donors. Administrative support is provided by the Refugee Studies Centre and the wider university.
FMR is led by an editorial team comprised of the Managing and Deputy Editors, and supported by an operations team including Outreach, Finance, and Administration.
FMR’s Advisory Board comprises a diverse array of forced displacement experts who provide insight and advice on FMR’s strategic direction and editorial content.
