Repairing infrastructures of (im)mobility: lessons from the Covid-19 crisis. Talk by Gunjan Sondhi (The Open University, University Centre Peterborough, UK)
Crises are not events but moments that make visible internal contradictions. COVID-19 offered such a moment of crisis. It exposed the infrastructures of (im)mobilities, their components, their failures, and how they had always been tenuous and wrought with issues. It revealed that migrants always had to negotiate these tenuous infrastructures, and the pandemic increased the intensity of that experience of migrant spatial and temporal precarity. Though the pandemic as one moment of crisis is over, and the work of repair has started, the infrastructures of (im)mobilities for migrants continue to be tenuous and failing. And so, we are left with two questions: What could be functioning infrastructures of (im)mobilities that centre migrants look like? Who is responsible for this repair work?
