I'm having a very interesting week at the Polish/Belarus border learning about the border wall, the suspension of asylum, and the work of activists in the forests. Researchers at the border made this brilliant map which can be used as a tool for teaching on this borderzone mapa.bbng.org/en

25. Seminar on the Border is coming to a close. Our discussion unfolded against the backdrop of the suspension of the right to asylum in PL. Research on the border, discursive militarisation & hidden racism, East–West inequalities, and Europeanisation as violence remains more important than ever.

Yesterday we heard many voices from those who support people on the move, criticising migration strategy of Poland and especially temporal suspension of right to asylum. In practice, this is already happening with pushbacks being regular practice of Polish uniformed services. #border #GrupaGranica
