Descripció
Resum:	This research offers an in-depth analysis of participatory cultural projects engaging migrant communities across six distinct European locations. By interviewing the Principal Investigators (PIs) of these projects, this study examines technology’s dual role as both facilitator and barrier, alongside the critical role of human facilitators in fostering trust and sustainable engagement. It highlights the nuanced dynamics of power relations and the reluctance of participants to voice challenges, which can impede participation. Despite these hurdles, the research reveals the transformative impact of innovative approaches in working with vulnerable populations. The findings contribute to the fields of Social Sciences and Communication Sciences, stressing the importance of culturally sensitive technological practices, digital literacy programs, and sustainable, modular communication frameworks. These insights underscore the complex interplay between technology, societal integration, and community engagement, aiming to inform and enhance future cultural endeavors through tailored, empathetic approaches.
