New Report on Practices of Protection and Resilience among Myanmar scholars-in-exile in Thailand

The Creating Safer Space project ‘Scholars at Risk: Understanding vulnerability and violence faced by Myanmar refugee scholars in northern Thailand’ has published a report, Understanding Practices of Protection and Resilience: Co-producing knowledge among Myanmar scholars-in-exile.

The report is edited by Aung Kyaw Thein and Elliot Lodge.

It investigates the protection mechanisms and resilience strategies of Myanmar scholars and communities displaced to Thailand following the military coup in 2021. Key findings highlight the importance of proactive agency, networks of trust, mutual aid, collective action, and rebuilding communal spaces in fostering resilience.
