What the paper says

This article explores how asylum seekers and refugees experience ‘welcome’ in Glasgow, a city recognized for its proactive approach to migration amidst the United Kingdom’s polarized discourse. Through semi-structured interviews, the study examines three key aspects: encounters with institutional support, the role of community spaces in fostering a sense of welcome and the impact of interpersonal interactions on evolving experiences of welcome. The findings reveal that personal histories, daily interactions and the broader sociopolitical context shape perceptions of welcome, highlighting its complex and dynamic nature.
