On June 15, PRIO hosted a seminar discussing the potentials and challenges of using visual storytelling in academic research. ​How can human lives be explored through comics, animations and paintings of research? How can visual storytelling be used as a fieldwork method, or as a tool of knowledge production? How do researchers best partner with artists and research participants to share knowledge?

• Maja Janmyr, Professor of International Migration Law, University of Oslo
• Omar Khouri, Interdisciplinary Artist and co-founder of Samandal Comics
