We had such productive and inspiring workshop in Athens this past days for the @CostDATAMIG#data#migration#Border Looking forward to continuing this fruitful collaboration meeting wonderful colleagues from the European Academia and different fields 👌🏻
This deep insight into collaborative attempts of seeking justice in the context of obfuscation has been truely inspiring for the entire conference. Many thanks to the lawyers, border forensics and solidarian activists contributing to this pre-event!
Views from Athens these past days: The local team in Greece organised a fantastic pre-event on "Migration/Border Data Matters, Introduction: On No Data in the Era of Big Data, The Case of the Pylos Tragedy".
TO LISTEN 📻 On June 14, 2023, a fishing trawler carrying 750 people sank near Pylos, in one of the deadliest shipwrecks in the Mediterranean. @iMEdD_org new audio documentary, "Pylos: A Υear Οn", explores the ins and outs of this story.
