Refugees come to Europe to escape war, totalitarian regimes and persecution; paradoxically, they frequently end up in situations where freedom of choice and democracy are limited. Often this happens in refugee camps, where although sometimes representatives are elected, people still describe their condition as 'living in a prison'. Refu.rendum (Refugees + Referendum) is an online platform and app that gives refugees the possibility to vote on topics related to the camp they’re stationed in and on refugee status at large. It is a way of including refugees in a democratic framework that affects them directly, and of allowing them to regain a sense of community by making relevant choices for themselves. As refugee you log in the platform and you can participate in the ‘question of the week’, either regarding local (camp) or general refugee issues. For example: What does the Calais camp need? A new playground, more toilets, a community center or new pavements?
