📢 New Publication Alert! We’re thrilled to share that Amandine Desille, a member of the Re-Place consortium, has recently published a new chapter in the book Cultural Heritage and Mobility from a Multisensory Perspective, edited by Magdalena Banaszkiewicz and Karolina Nikielska-Sekuła. The chapter, titled "Sensing the Mobile: Ukrainian Cultural Heritage in Portugal," is based on a film project illustrating the potential of visual research to enable a multisensory exploration of migrant heritage within the diaspora. This work demonstrates how visual methodologies—such as those adopted by Re-Place project members—can deepen our understanding of cultural preservation and sensory experiences in migration contexts. 📖 Discover more about how these insights contribute to the growing literature on cultural heritage, migration, and transnationalism by reading the full chapter! https://lnkd.in/diS8cwAs #Migration #Mobility #CulturalHeritage #RePlace
