New Issue of FMR

The June 2020 issue of Forced Migration Review (FMR) has been published. Two themes are featured in FMR64: "Climate crisis and local communities / Trafficking and smuggling." Also included is a mini feature on "COVID-19: early reflections."  Here is the description:

"Climate crisis and local communities: Local communities around the world have been coping with the effects of a changing climate for decades. This feature focuses on the impact on local communities, their coping strategies, lessons arising, and broader questions of access, rights and justice. (A future issue will focus on international response and policy.) [Includes 11 articles. See also FMR49.]

Trafficking and smuggling: Since we published an issue on human trafficking in 2006, increased reporting of both trafficking and smuggling has triggered renewed attention around the growing impact of, and the links between, these related but distinct phenomena. This feature explores some of the current challenges, misconceptions, insights and innovations in these fields. [Includes 12 articles. See also thematic listing.]

COVID-19 – early reflections: Four articles offer preliminary reflections on the pandemic, focusing on the role of refugee-led organisations and the need for data to inform responses."

The Editors' Briefing provides a more detailed overview of the themed articles. In addition, readers can access FMR articles 1) individually, in HTML & PDF formats, 2) via standalone PDFs for each of the three themes, or 3) as one complete issue.

Back issues of FMR are available here.

FMR is an open access publication. It is available online and in print in English, Arabic, French and Spanish. Audio versions of articles are available in English.
