Imperial War Museum collaboration explores experiences of refugees

Imperial War Museums (IWM) has announced its 2020 programme, including the Refugees season which will invite visitors to explore refugee experiences throughout history and the ongoing issues faced by those affected.

The season will include a major exhibition, Refugees: Forced to Flee, at IWM London from 2 April – 29 November 2020. Created in partnership with ESRC and AHRC, Refugees: Forced to Flee will explore how and why conflict has forced people to leave their homes and seek to build new lives elsewhere.
