Abstract
Migrants face many barriers related to economic opportunities, language, and information needed not only to survive but thrive. This poster highlights findings of Fotohistorias, a participatory photography research project spanning three countries and two years. This research helps to better understand migrant’s values,learning and information needs, in particular the building of trust and its relation to place, which emerge as critical issues in the experience of migration.
