Borders & Belonging – Migration has been a constant feature of human history, shaping societies and cultures for millennia. Far from being a new or unusual phenomenon, people have always moved in search of better opportunities, safety, or resources. From ancient trade routes to modern global networks, migration has played a vital role in economic development, cultural exchange and social transformation. Yet despite its ubiquity, migrants are often scapegoated as the cause of economic and political problems in host states, overshadowing the many contributions that human mobility brings to both sending and receiving countries. Borders & Belonging helps cut through the noise. In each episode, host Maggie Perzyna takes a closer look at the popular discourse surrounding migration and engages with leading experts to provide evidence-based insights.

TAHJEER Podcast – is a podcast devoted to examining displacement across the Arab world as an engineered political, economic, and social process.

Each episode seeks to connect academic knowledge with lived experience and to make research on forced migration accessible to wider audiences.
