- Hybrid Workshop ‘‘How to do migration research’’ that we organized on 13 & 14 April 2023 together with GRITIM and the Department of Social and Political Science of Universitat Pompeu Fabra was a huge success! The event gathered over 100 on-site and online participants who joined two days of expert-led session focused on methodological training in migration research.

Our last webinar (with Paweł Kaczmarczyk, Karolina Łukasiewicz and Marta Pachocka as invited guests) focused on the governance of forced migration and the multilevel response to the 2022 arrival of forced migrants from Ukraine to Poland. Our next session will take place on 24 May 2023, with Engin Isin (Queen Mary University of London & University of London Institute in Paris) presenting his latest work on ‘The conditions of planetary citizenship’.
