Forced Migration Review
Academic journal
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Forced Migration Review (FMR) is a publication on refugee, internal displacement and statelessness issues.
History and profile
It was founded in 1987 as the Refugee Participation Network newsletter. The first issue was published in November 1987.[1] In April 1998 it was re-launched as Forced Migration Review (FMR). It is published by the University of Oxford's Refugee Studies Centre[2] in four languages,[1] namely English, Arabic, Spanish and French. It is also distributed without charge. It appears approximately three times a year, with occasional supplements and special issues. Most issues have a main theme and also carry some 'general articles' on other aspects of forced migration.
FMR provides a practice-oriented forum for debate on issues facing refugees and internally displaced persons in order to improve policy and practice and to involve refugees and IDPs in programme design and implementation.
