• The dissertation examines the potential for higher music education to enable reciprocal integration through creating musical spaces involving musicians with a refugee or immigrant background and higher music education students and teachers, enhancing the participation of refugees in the receiving society.
• It is written from the perspective of a researcher, as an ‘at-home ethnographer’ who gathered participants from different parts of the Middle East and Europe and students from the Sibelius Academy in an ensemble called World in Motion. The process of composing and arranging was performed through collaborative musicking.
• Intended for every music teacher and ensemble leader in HMEI who wants to expand his/her practice to the service learning, as well as for institutional leaders who want to develop HMEIs’ civic mission.
