CANCELLED Summer school: Migration, Integration, and Social Networks

The nexus between international migration and social networks is crucial in understanding different phases of migration experience. It is well-established that personal links to previous migrants increase the propensity for others to migrate, whereas networks in the settlement phase have a variety of roles going beyond a mere information transmission.

In the summer school 'Migration, Integration, and Social Networks' the aim is to bring together scholars and excellent Master and PhD students who work on similar topics from different theoretical perspectives and methodologies (qualitative, quantitative, and mixed-methods) in order to learn from each other and foster discussion about how to study network effects on international migration, migrants, and their local and transnational networks. These aims will be realized through lectures on cutting-edge research on migration and networks and discussion of on-going work by the students.
