Abstract

Presentation aims to investigate the role of Archives in preserving the history of the nation-state and to consider the notion that the voices of refugees are often marginalised or left un-heard with the Archive, or even deliberately overlooked in favour of the dominant narratives of the nation.
This paper will also briefly consider the approaches being undertaken to collect and preserve the history of the refugee experience.
