The first EuMIGS cohort attended the 2019 Annual IMISCOE Conference “Understanding International Migration in the 21st Century: Conceptual and Methodological Approaches”, which took place from June 26 to 28, 2019 at Malmö University in Sweden.
The four students presented their master theses in the framework of a special EuMIGS student panel that was held on the second day of the conference. Many senior scholars attended the panel and congratulated the EuMIGS students on their contributions. For the students, the participation in the conference was a unique opportunity to come together again and to experience an international conference setting: “It was a highlight to personally meet scholars that we only knew from the literature beforehand and to present our own work and receive such constructive and positive feedback”, the students said after the conference.
