How does the media cover migration, and how does it frame our perception?
What are possible design solutions and strategies for refugees and their host communities, in order to offer a sense of normality and (the feeling of) safety in extreme situations?
The Seminar was a two-day event arranged by the Oslo School of Architecture together with The Bergen Scool of Architecture (BAS) and Oslo Met.
