It explores how people experience and navigate disasters, violence, and emergency, and how these experiences are shaped by their identities, by the opportunities and challenges of displacement, and in their roles as economic, social, and political agents.

This research stream also considers how physical and digital infrastructures influence the way individuals and institutions engage with each other in times of upheaval.
