NEGOTIA – Negotiating Religion: Coptic Orthodox diaspora communities. Shifting identities, needs, and relations from Egypt to Europe and back is a 3-year EU-funded project started on the 1st of July 2020 under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions.
NEGOTIA studies the Coptic migrant communities in Europe with respect to the deconstruction and reconstruction of their historical-biographical and discursive-relational profile across their migration process.
