Narrative cartography Forced displacement worldwide - Palestian forced migration

  1. Forced displacement, also known as forced migration, refers to the movement of people away from their homes due to threats to their lives, liberty, or livelihoods. It can happen due to various reasons such as war, conflicts, persecution, natural disasters, and even pandemics.

Some of the major events that caused forced displacements are the India-Pakistan formation in 1947, the Ukraine and Syrian refugee crisis, and the Israel war.

https://www.unhcr.org/in/news/stories/forced-displacement-worldwide-its-highest-decades

Questions for specific focus - What was the particular cause of displacement? (conflict, climate change, etc.) Where do these people seek asylum? What do people experience? (living conditions, location of refugee spaces, journey with mode to reach safe space, etc.)

Ideas for Narrative Cartography -

  1. The adventures of Robert Langdon A cartographic narration following fictional character Robert Langdon, created by bestselling author Dan Brown. The narrative can follow the storyline of the entire Robert Langdon series, emphasising on history of different cities across the European sub-continent and artefacts in different museums that are talked about in the book series.

  2. Lehman Brothers and the Global Financial Crisis of 2008 Articulating the meteoric rise of the Lehman Brothers in the US and the eventual downfall that shook the Global Financial Market in 2008

3. The journey of Zoroastrianism Inspired by bestselling novel 'The Magicians of Mazda' by Ashwin Sanghi, a cartographic narration of the rise and fall of Zoroastrianism, in now-Iran and how a small chunk of the Zoroastrian population fled Arab invasion to reach India, today known as the 'Parsis'.

Ideas for point of focus- a. How Zoroastrianism spread and what was the medium(land, sea) b. Locations and area that housed the faith for centuries before Arab Invasion c. The trail followed by refugees to flee the invasion and eventually reach India (Could be titled - Odyssey of Parsis) d. The journey after reaching India e. The community as of today and their contributions to the country.

Idea for Narrative Cartography - The Global Trade Crisis (ongoing)

A complex crisis affecting vital sea trade routes has arisen due to a combination of factors. Recent attacks on ships in the Red Sea by the Houthis due to the Israel-Gaza War, hence affecting usage of Suez Canal, geopolitical tensions affecting shipping in the Black Sea by the Ukraine-Russia War, and the impacts of climate change on the Panama Canal due to severe droughts have all contributed to the crisis.

Points to be highlighted through a Map-

  1. The main sea trade routes globally with primary choke points.
  2. The 4 vital sea trade route choke points which are affected. How much traffic flow will get affected at each point.
  3. What is the problem at each location. (emphasizing on this part),
  4. The diverted route through Cape of Good Hope. The increased time and distance it takes through this route.

Why should we be concerned? Global Implication- Energy and Food prices rise. Consumers get affected due to Inflation.

Topic - Guardians of Hope “An attempt to document and analyze the utilization of air assets in the timely rescue efforts during the Kedarnath 2013 flash flood disaster."

Narrative - The narrative of my project delves into the indispensable contribution of air assets during the Kedarnath 2013 flash flood rescue. It emphasizes the courageous aerial operations that swiftly reached isolated regions, evacuated stranded individuals, and mitigated the disaster's impact.

This project comprises several videos that offer a more immersive experience when accessed through the Figma prototype. Thank you.
