About

Engaging with 89 refugees settling in Sweden over a two-year period, we explore how accelerated and digitalised resettlement processes shape the “civic turn” – a process of integrating refugees into the social and cultural aspects of the new land.

We show how this "digital turn" exacerbates existing barriers to resettlement and call on the HCI community to understand resettlement as encompassing multiple digitally-mediated transitional phases of citizenry.
