Research focus while a Fellow with CERC

Christianna Mourouzi's research centres on advancing migrant-led storytelling and advocacy, with a focus on amplifying voices of displacement-affected communities and shifting humanitarian narratives toward lived experience. At CERC Migration, she aims to build strong linkages by engaging scholars and community partners in dialogue on narrative politics, co-developing comparative research, and exploring collaborative outputs such as joint publications or advocacy initiatives. Through exchange with experts at CERC Migration, she aims to refine her approach while contributing a practitioner perspective to CERC Migration's work on migration, integration, and representation.
