An International Conference supported by the Arts and Humanities Research Council of Britain, Diaspora, Migration and Identities Programme, 3–5 November 2007, Royal Holloway, University of London.

Within the current context of globalisation and its attendant anxieties about immigration and national security, performance by and about refugees and asylum seekers presents an exemplary medium through which to explore questions of identity, belonging, refuge, corporeality, surveillance and ethics. This international conference examines the ways in which performance projects in various parts of the world engage with refugee communities and, more broadly, the complex and multifaceted topic of asylum.
