Rites de Passage: Elucidating Displacement to Emplacement of Refugees on Twitter
Prior refugee-related studies have primarily examined social media deliberations to probe societal opinions around a specific refugee event. Contrarily, our study attempts to identify the various stages of their journey from displacement to emplacement in the host nation. We draw insights from Gennep's seminal work, i.e., *Les Rites de Passage*, to identify four phases of the refugee journey: *Arrival of Refugees, Temporal stay at Asylums, Rehabilitation*, and *Integration of Refugees* into the host nation. To test our proposed framework, we have collected multimodal tweets from April 15, 2020
