1. Forced Displacement in Gaza
Summary
This project documents and communicates the process of forced displacement in Gaza. It combines open-source research, geospatial analysis, and audiovisual storytelling to illustrate how evacuation orders, building destruction, and neighborhood dynamics intersect in the context of war and human rights violations.
