We are planning to hold a Symposium to showcase the project and our findings, scheduled for September 2017.
The one-day symposium held by the PACCS (Partnership for Conflict, Crime and Security Research) ESRC-funded project on "Representation of Transnational Human Trafficking in Present-Day news media, true crime, and fiction" will take place on September the 12th 2017.
The symposium will showcase some of our project partners’ research results (with findings split across the genres of newstexts, crime fiction, and true crime documentaries), and welcomes feedback from a group of especially invited participants. Amongst these we are very pleased to welcome our three invited speakers:
We have also invited a number of practitioners, academics and policy makers who are investigating the ways in which transnational human trafficking is portrayed across a range of influential text types, and the implications this portrayal has for policy-related response. The Symposium participants include academics, writers, film makers and a range of human trafficking charity, institution, foundation, and media subject matter experts.
