As a result, artists, journalists and human rights defenders are seeking out shelter or safer locations in order to escape harm. However, the support systems currently in place predominantly relocate at-risk African artists to Europe and North America, which poses an additional set of social, cultural and economic challenges. This brief summarises key findings and recommendations of a report that investigates the successes and challenges of developing temporary shelter and relocation initiatives based in Africa.}, keywords = {Ostafrika; freedom of opinion; civil society; Menschenrechte; non-governmental organization; international cultural policy; Kunst; ; human rights violation; East Africa; Uganda; Africa; culture; Menschenrechtsverletzung; Künstlerin; Southern Africa; Afrika; auswärtige Kulturpolitik; West Africa; Meinungsfreiheit; südliches Afrika; artist; human rights; Uganda; nichtstaatliche Organisation; art; Zivilgesellschaft; Kultur; Westafrika; Künstler}}
