Andriani Fili has been working on immigration detention in Greece since 2011, both as a researcher and as an NGO practitioner. Drawing together a large amount of empirical data, her PhD research explored the mechanisms through which the detention system in Greece has withstood harsh criticism and underpinned a continuum of institutional racism and harmful practices. Her current research project, funded by Wellcome Trust, explores the role and impact of health provision on people inside immigration detention centres and after release in Greece. Drawing on a range of sources of evidence, it further examines the continuity of experiences of medical care across and beyond these spaces and through time, tracing connections between zones of quarantine and confinement for those deemed undesirable in the country. In Greece she is also involved in counter-mapping activities of migrant containment spaces in collaboration with local civil society actors.
