Popis: https://raisd-h2020.eu/final-conference This International Conference was organised by CESIE www.cesie.org under the H2020 project RAISD project addressing the need for effective strategies for the attention and inclusion of distinctively Vulnerable Groups among Forcibly Displaced People. "Forced displacement crises overcome societies and institutions all over the world. Pushed by the urgencies rather than events, solutions are frequently reactive, partial, and disregard some groups. The project ‘Reshaping Attention and Inclusion Strategies for Distinctively vulnerable people among the forcibly displaced’ (RAISD) aims at identifying highly Vulnerable Groups (VG) among these forcibly displaced people, analysing their specific needs, and finding suitable practices to address them. The concept of ‘vulnerability context’ considers the interplay between the features of these persons and their hosting communities, their interactions and experiences, and how different solutions for attention and inclusion affect them. As a result of this work, a methodology to carry out these studies was developed. They pursue characterizing these migrations and developing suitable aid strategies for them. The Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) frames the project. It proposes that all actors (including civil society) co-design actions, transversely integrates the gender perspective, and supports sustainability. Our research strategy is based on methodological triangulation (i.e. the combined application of several methodologies). We implemented it through a specific participatory action research approach to fulfil the aim of undertaking advocacy-focused research, grounded in human rights and socio-ecological models. The team worked as a network of units in countries along migration routes. The units promoted the VG people’ involvement, so they spoke with their own voices, gathered information, and tested practices. Work relied on a tight integration of Social and Computer Sciences research. Automated learning and data mining will continue helping to provide evidence-based recommendations and reduce priori biases. A software tool supports collaboration, continuing previous H2020- funded RRI work." The agenda included 2 key-note speakers (Debora Kayembe – Human rights activist and Rector, University of Edinburgh, UK “Cultural interference is paramount to providing positive support for the vulnerable groups among forcibly displaced people” + Maria Jesus Vega - UNHCR spokesperson, Spain “Global Compact on Refugees: the difference we all can make in refugees’ lives”) and institutional greeting from the city council representative, 4 individual talks and 6 Panels (total of n.31 researchers and practioners discussing project results on stage, on camera) [facebook live-streaming]. Conference video pills and ppt presentations are available at https://raisd-h2020.eu/final-conference International External Stakeholders in the field of migration were invited to apply for the financial support from the H2020 Programme to attend the RAISD International Conference. This kind of funding was provided to four actors from Albania, Austria, Italy and Spain that committed to further exploit the RAISD Results into own research and/or practices for the inclusion of highly vulnerable people in forced displacement. https://raisd-h2020.eu/final-conference/call.
