This Pitch & Mix session, organised by the Migration Policy Department of the Dutch Ministry of Justice & Security and the Dutch Association for Migration Research (DAMR), has the objective of bringing together policy makers and academics to discuss the policy implications of migration research. The session will give researchers the opportunity to pitch ongoing and soon-to-kick-off research projects on topics related to international migration relevant to actors in the Dutch migration policy domain.
Research that is practice-oriented is especially welcome.
Topics that are of special interest to the policy department are: (circular) labour migration, study migration, borders, return migration and housing and of course all research related to the new Migration Pact is also relevant. Researchers working on other topics relevant for policy makers are also welcome to submit a proposal.
Policy makers are also invited to discuss their policy dilemmas and needs for new research with scholars. Chatham House Rules shall apply.
If you have a research project that you would like to share with relevant stakeholders and discuss its policy implications, please submit your Pitch & Mix proposal (max. 200 words) including your research project title, its status and policy relevance before September 10th to Djamila Schans (WODC) j.m.d.schans@wodc.nl
Shortly after the deadline you will be informed about the outcome of the selection process and the complete program.
