This Special Issue is the result of two workshops organised at the 
University of Leicester in the summer of 2016, which were a response to 
the topical interest for refugee's access to digital technologies AND 
the dehumanizing language used in, especially but not limited to 
British, media regarding migrants and/or refugees.

In the editorial we connect the the main outcomes of the workshops to 
the articles within this Special Issue. Main outcomes consist of the 
importance that scholars on (forced) migration and media move beyond 
techno/cyber orientalism, and instead situate migrants' media use and 
responses towards migration into broader historical and socio-economical 
contexts and finally, the responsibility that researchers and 
activists have in regard to ongoing acts of solidarity.

The articles published for this Special Issue are the following:
