Stitch for Change: Exploring Power, Community, and Housing. In February, the Refugee Buddy Project, a refugee-led organization and DPU partner in the AHRC-DFG-funded project REFRAME – Reframing Arrival, launched Stitch for Change—a series of creative workshops exploring Community Superpower and Housing. These workshops interrogate power—whose power it is, and the power to do what—through a participatory process of storytelling and textile-making. The culmination of this project will be the creation of superhero capes, stitched with personal narratives of power, community, and the experience of making home by refugee women and other urban dwellers. These capes will be exhibited at the De La Warr Pavilion on June 20, marking World Refugee Day. The Refugee Buddy Project is a refugee and migrant-led organization that stands in solidarity with people seeking refuge in Hastings, Rother, and Wealden.
