Understanding, resisting and building alternatives to territorial and internal borders that divide us and reduce our lives. Picture of a mural created by Andrew Bolton together with Disabled people seeking asylum. On the left there is a person falling from a building with a police car below. A wheelchair user is chained. A man is holding his head. A small figure is tending a grave. A fence divides these people from people sitting outside a large house. Guards with their fingers in their ears are guarding the fence. The sun is shining on that side. At the top a small row of figures is pulling the fence away.

DAMN Borders. End Barriers!

28th June 2025, North London.

Collaborative activist conference between the Disability and Migration Network (DAMN) and the DPAC Crip tank.

Understanding, resisting and building alternatives to territorial and internal borders that divide us and reduce our lives.

The UK asylum and immigration system is disabling. People are restricted from meeting essential needs. The result is to further disable people with existing impairments as well as to create new impairments in the asylum system.
