This PhD programme examines the intergenerational settlement experiences of asylum and refugee families in England's Tyneside region. It probes intersecting issues of xenophobia, emotional and bureaucratic violence, as well as social exclusion and relatedness in a place that experiences the fallout of austerity measures, with significant cuts to social welfare spending. This study documents the strategies of refugees, including their aspirations and hopes as they attempt to make lives for themselves in the UK within a time of growing ethno-nationalism and intensifying national and international opposition to migrants. These efforts draw on over 10 years of my experience working in the voluntary sector in the Tyneside region and my first-hand experience of working at the frontlines of issues affecting refugee families. This research will involve focus groups, in-depth interviews and ethnographic observations with young refugees and asylum seekers aged 10-18, and their family members. These will focus on collecting biographical histories, critical reflections and insights on the migration and settlement process, while illuminating sites and instances of social interaction and exchange between refugee and receiving communities. Selected participants will participate in an 8-week Photovoice project in which we will collectively identify, photograph and discuss issues shaping their settlement. Participants' photographic work will be disseminated in a curated exhibition during Tyneside's 2021 Refugee Week and other sites. These activities will be developed through a research partnership with the North of England Refugee Service and central aspects of my programme will be devised to support the organisation's advocacy work in the region.

该博士项目研究了英格兰泰恩赛德地区庇护和难民家庭的代际定居经历。它探讨了仇外心理、情感暴力和官僚暴力以及社会排斥和关联性等交叉问题，该地区经历了紧缩措施的影响，社会福利支出大幅削减。这项研究记录了难民的策略，包括他们在民族主义日益高涨、国内外对移民的反对加剧的时代试图在英国谋生时的愿望和希望。这些努力借鉴了我在泰恩赛德地区志愿部门工作十多年的经验，以及我在影响难民家庭问题的第一线工作的第一手经验。这项研究将涉及 10 至 18 岁的年轻难民和寻求庇护者及其家人的焦点小组、深入访谈和人种学观察。这些将侧重于收集关于移民和定居过程的传记历史、批判性反思和见解，同时阐明难民和接收社区之间社会互动和交流的地点和实例。选定的参与者将参加为期 8 周的 Photovoice 项目，在该项目中，我们将集体识别、拍摄并讨论影响他们解决问题的问题。参与者的摄影作品将在泰恩赛德 2021 年难民周期间和其他场所举办的策划展览中传播。这些活动将通过与英格兰北部难民服务中心的研究伙伴关系来开展，我的计划的核心部分将旨在支持该组织在该地区的宣传工作。
