Programme 11 March

The group consists of students and researchers involved in projects and activities related to Turkish Migration. TurkMiS aims to concentrate research conducted at Oxford University, across the various departments, colleges and institutes, on migration from, to and through Turkey and its vicinity and related politics in the fields of migration, refugees, European affairs and international relations. The meetings aim to present what is known, to identify knowledge gaps and encourage research into these. The event provides the opportunity to hear about various research projects and activities currently being undertaken.
