Hosted by the Centre for the Study of Global Human Movement, this interdisciplinary workshop will explore different approaches to research on migration.
Experts from across different disciplines will share their experience and discuss ways of addressing the specificities and sensitivities of research in areas such as migration policies, labour mobilities, smuggling and human trafficking, arts in the justice system, multilingualism, intellectual and material history, cultural heritage and education.
The workshop aims to give participants practical experience in thinking through some of the conceptual and practical challenges relating to migration research and to provide a forum for discussing their own research experience in this area.
