The SO-CLOSE Project

Enhancing Social Cohesion through Sharing the Cultural Heritage of Forced Migrations

SO-CLOSE is a three-year project created to contribute to social cohesion and fight refugee marginalization or exclusion by facilitating the encounters between similar life stories, through the mediation of innovative digital and artistic tools.


Based on theories of cultural heritage-making, SO-CLOSE will improve social cohesion and promote mutual understanding between refugees and their local communities.

There are around one million recognized refugees living in the European Union. Most come from Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Nigeria, Pakistan, Eritrea and Albania. They flee armed conflict, violence, oppression or human rights violations. They are often at risk of social exclusion as a result of their trauma and loss of identity.

To help address this exclusion, the SO-CLOSE project aims to contribute to social cohesion and integration through mutual understanding between refugees and the host European societies. The project uses co-creative design methodologies and innovative digital and artistic tools to share the life experiences of refugees with the memories of survivors of European conflicts, such as the Bosnian war, the Spanish Civil War or the Holocaust. preserved in historical memory centers.
