# Episode Title Description People Date
401 FMR 50 - Home after Dayton: IDPs in Sarajevo The experiences of displaced people in Sarajevo show that living in a place that people perceive to be safe and to provide opportunities can be more desirable than returning to one’s place of origin. Participatory urban projects can help foster community. Gruia Badescu 01 Sep 2015
402 FMR 50 - The compound effects of conflict and disaster displacement in Bosnia and Herzegovina Some IDPs living in protracted displacement in Bosnia and Herzegovina, such as many Roma IDPs, were especially vulnerable to the effects of the May 2014 flooding and landslides. Wesli H Turner 01 Sep 2015
403 FMR 50 - Prijedor: re-imagining the future Public memorialisation in Bosnia and Herzegovina today is an act of remembering not just those who died in the conflict but also the multi-ethnic reality of earlier times. Articulation of this, however, is being obstructed in cities like Prijedor. Damir Mitrić, Sudbin Musić 01 Sep 2015
404 FMR 50 - Mass evacuations: learning from the past Twenty years after the evacuations from the Bosnian ‘safe areas’, humanitarians continue to struggle with dilemmas around humanitarian evacuations. Caelin Briggs 01 Sep 2015
405 FMR 50 - Bosnia revisited: a retrospective on the legacy of the conflict It is instructive to review the legacy the conflict in Bosnia and the post-war settlement in order to appreciate how this conflict set the stage for major institutional developments in the field of humanitarian protection. Brad K Blitz 01 Sep 2015
406 FMR 50 General - Inconsistency in asylum appeal adjudication New research findings indicate that factors such as the gender of the judge and of the appellant, and where the appellant lives, are influencing asylum appeal adjudication. Nick Gill, Rebecca Rotter, Andrew Burridge, Melanie Griffiths 01 Sep 2015
407 FMR 50 General - Sheltering displaced persons from sexual and gender-based violence Providing a variety of safe shelter types, each with its own unique strengths and limitations, within a single area could help meet the diverse and changing needs of survivors of sexual and gender-based violence. Julie Freccero 01 Sep 2015
408 FMR 50 General - Changing how we measure success in resettlement Refugees should be treated not as poor, traumatised foreigners but as strong and capable people who can be resources in their countries of resettlement. Justin S Lee, Suzie S Weng, Sarah Ivory 01 Sep 2015
409 FMR 50 General - Young Afghans facing return A project in the UK aiming to prepare young men for return to Afghanistan through an assisted voluntary return programme was unsuccessful. A different, longer-term approach might have been more appropriate and more effective. Kim Robinson, Lucy Williams 01 Sep 2015
410 FMR 50 General - A fragmented landscape of protection Changing concepts of protection and a growing diversity in the practice of protection and in the range of humanitarian and other actors doing protection work have led to a fragmentation of effective protection for forced migrants. Roger Zetter 01 Sep 2015
