Migrant Disaster Victim Identification:
A Survey to Understand Current Practices

This project contributes to the University’s role in conducting research/evaluation, and teaching research methods.

You are under no obligation to follow this link, however if you choose to, participation in this project is voluntary and you may withdraw at any time.

We are looking for volunteer participants in an online survey aimed at collecting information and insights from professional practitioners involved in forensic identification work, or in the search for persons gone missing on the migration journey to Europe. This survey aims to identify legal, technical, cultural, administrative, informational and institutional barriers that impede the successful location of missing persons and identification of unidentified human remains.

Participant recruitment is aimed at professionals working either in forensic human identification of unidentified human remains, or in the search for individuals who went missing during the migration to a European country. By consenting to participate, you will be provided with a single online survey (average 40 minutes to complete), including up to 134 questions regarding your professional work and the institutional context in which you complete this work.

Further information is provided in the participant information sheet that can be accessed by following the link: https://forms.office.com/e/dq56f76K7X
