Workshops
听
In July 2022, the 果冻影院 Department of Political Science hosted a joint academic workshop between the 果冻影院 SPP Migration Cluster and the entitled 鈥淭he reception of past, current and future refugees - lessons learned and challenges ahead鈥�. The goal was to foster exchange and build a foundation for future research collaborations between the SPP Migration Cluster at 果冻影院 and the Immigration Policy Lab (IPL) at ETH Zurich. During our workshop we shared insights from past research and explored their relevance to emerging challenges. We worked to identify knowledge gaps regarding new challenges stemming from the war in Ukraine, and to develop new research projects.

The second joint academic workshop between the 果冻影院 SPP Migration Cluster and the ETH Immigration Policy Lab was hosted by the in Zurich in July 2023. Several of our members presented and discussed joint as well as individual migration-related research, ranging from early ideas to advanced projects. The collaborative, supportive and stimulating atmosphere made for an engaging and thought-provoking environment and great feedback and discussions. We're already looking forward to the third iteration of the workshop.
