SUMMARY:Talk | Identity\, Belonging\, and Migrant Meaning-Making by Semanur Darbaz
DESCRIPTION:Young Scholar Seminar Series #41\nIdentity\, Belonging\, and Migrant Meaning-Making in Turkish Museums with Semanur Darbaz (Nottingham Trent University) \nYunus Emre Enstitüsü – London is pleased to host the 41sr session of its Young Scholar Seminar Series\, featuring Semanur Darbaz\, researcher and museum practitioner at Nottingham Trent University \nThis talk looks at how museums in Turkey represent migration\, cultural diversity and belonging\, and how visitors with migrant backgrounds interpret these narratives. The research examines whether museums can function as spaces of social cohesion and belonging\, while also critically questioning the Western epistemological assumptions that shape understandings of museums as a universal modern institution tied to nation-building\, and social progress. \nBy situating Turkish museums within local histories of identity formation and cultural politics\, the project offers a decolonial and context-sensitive contribution to critical museum studies. Combining walking interviews at museum visits\, group discussions\, and creative participatory methods\, the research highlights both the possibilities and the limits of museums as spaces where identity\, belonging\, and alternative social imaginaries can be negotiated. \n📅 Date: Monday\, 22 June 2026\n🕡 Time: 6:30 PM\n📍 Location: Yunus Emre Enstitüsü – London\, 10 Maple Street\, Fitzrovia\, W1T 5HA\n🗣️ Language: English\n🎟️ Admission: Free (registration required) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis talk forms part of the Young Scholar Seminar Series organised by Yunus Emre Enstitüsü – London since 2017. \nFor more information on the event\, please visit Yunus Emre Enstitüsü – London’s Website: https://yeelondon.org.uk/ or email us at londra@yee.org.tr \nIMPORTANT NOTES: As this is a free event\, we often experience a number of no-shows.
