PhD Candidate Brandy Cochrane recently presented a research mapping exercise of those who have died whilst crossing borders to Australia and in Europe at the 2013 Australia and New Zealand Society of Criminology Conference in Brisbane.
In developing her map, Brandy used BOb’s Australian Border Deaths Database and an EU equivalent from United Against Racism, to look at areas of origin and deaths at the borders of those attempting to make the perilous migration journey. She presents her findings and a discussion of the development of her map below arguing that those from certain areas are more likely to die in the borderlands than others, attributing such tragedies to border hardening tactics applied by states against these areas.
