This act of imagination is essential for envisioning transformative conditions for recognition and dignity—especially within the context of indifferent geopolitical developments. The concept of radical hope offers a powerful lens through which to imagine a different world: one where refugees believe in their transformative competence and the value of their insider knowledge, and where society, in turn, recognizes and affirms this strength.
