ITHACA collects, preserves, and analyses migrations narratives in the Mediterranean region from the Middle Ages to the present day, within a rigorous historical framework.
The ITHACA platform offers a digital database of narratives, documents and archival sources to researchers, practitioners, policy makers and migrants.
Migrant and refugee voices and narratives have often been undervalued by governments and international and local institutions, even by humanitarian agencies. Collecting and disseminating migrant and refugee stories is the very first step to promote policies of relief, empowerment, inclusion and participation. In this effort, past and present encounter and confront themselves.
The ITHACA’s team includes archives (the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees Historical Archives), research centres (the Universities of Modena and Reggio Emilia, Sorbonne, Leiden, Athens, Milan, Al-Akhawayn, the Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences, and the French National Centre for Research) and ngos (ARCS Tunisie and the Archive of Migrant Memories).
