Rethinking Migration

Convened by: The COMPAS Research Clusters

The aim of the series is to explore the how migration research has re-configured the social sciences over the past 10 years and in turn how changes in the social sciences have influenced the study of mobility and migration, their patterns, consequences and policies.

Each seminar will focus on one of the six COMPAS core research themes; flows and dynamics, labour markets, citizenship and belonging, urban change and settlement, welfare, and the Migration Observatory.
