Conference themes <\/strong><\/p>\n

We invite proposals for papers, workshops, exhibitions and performances which respond to and confront the relationship between migration and the various social, political, environmental and economic upheavals currently in process worldwide. We hope to include discussions around issues such as forced displacement, asylum, labour migration, trafficking, diaspora, integration, citizenship and their reciprocal relationships with conflict, economic inequalities, hardship, climate change, political change and social transformation. The following themes are intended as a guide:
\n\u00b7       Home, Borders, Identities
\n\u00b7       Media, Culture, New Populisms
\n\u00b7       History, Agency, Institutions
\n\u00b7       Languages, Narratives, Expressions
\n\u00b7       Methodologies, Research and Practice<\/p>\n
