Affiliate Artists are artists that work within the realm of refugee integration through languages and the arts. The network brings together artists from various backgrounds, who work with and reflect on the role Arts and Languages play in bringing people together and strengthening social cohesion.
The work of these artists helps us gain deeper understanding of integration, migration, identity, belonging and related themes. It is for this reason we endorse their work and we try to support them in their practice.
Refugee integration is a process that involves three actors: Refugees, Artists and the Host Country. This means that the thinking needs to take place in all three areas, with a strong focus on hospitality and cultural and linguistic exchange. Our Affiliate Artists all use these themes in their work and we encourage them to find partners within the network, to set up international projects and partnerships.
