This event highlights the perils of maritime migration, through short films and panel discussions.
The central Mediterranean Sea between North Africa and Europe is the deadliest migration route in the world, with thousands of migrants losing their lives each year in precarious boats.
Maritime migration to the UK has also seen a significant increase, with over 150,000 people arriving across the English Channel since 2018.
This event will feature insights from filmmakers, academics and creatives, discussing issues from cultural displacement to identity.
It will take place in the Lecture Theatre at the National Maritime Museum, and is part of a series of events at Royal Museums Greenwich marking Refugee Week.
