DAMR is looking forward to welcoming you at their Annual Conference, taking place on September 25, 2026, at Radboud University, in Nijmegen, hosted by RUNOMI (Radboud University Network on Migrant Inclusion).
Each year, DAMR provides an interdisciplinary platform for migration scholars at different career stages to share their research and engage in discussions on pressing issues in migration studies, and do networking for further collaborations. This year, we will host 7 interdisciplinary panels on topics that range from migrant mobility and digitalization to labour migration and labour market inclusion.
During the Annual Congress we will have an introductory roundtable with leading migration scholars working in the Netherlands will discuss the position of migration research in the Netherlands. Where are we now regarding migration research and what are the developments? What are the major developments and challenges of the migration research field going forward?
DAMR will also host an intergenerational question section where junior scholars can ask questions from established senior scholars in the field of migration research.
