We would like to invite you to the panel discussion "African-European Perspectives on Migration: Advancing the Field through Transdisciplinarity" as part of the International Days at the University of Bonn. The panel will look at Ayesha Hussain's research on migration from South Asia, with the intersection of labor and gender dependencies, as a comparative case for African-European migration.
Focusing on perspectives from Africa and Europe, the panelists will discuss the potential for inter- and transdisciplinary research partnerships to unlock a more comprehensive understanding of migration dynamics and thus take account of the need for diverse regional and methodological perspectives in the next generation of migration studies. The invited experts will share their experience of transnational cooperation and present their ideas for how knowledge exchange and joint research can advance the field of migration studies.
