In the framework of IEMed Interdisciplinary Research Seminars, GRITIM-UPF is organizing a roundtable on Tuesday April 2nd, 2019, on "Mediterranean Migration Governance Systems: New Patterns and New Issues within the Research Agenda."

The roundtable aims to introduce new debates on Mediterranean Migration both at the policy and research levels, at the North and South of the Mediterranean basin. The idea is to promote a forum of debate on the new policy patterns in the Mediterranean Migration Governance systems. The overarching goal is to place Mediterranean Migration within the global agenda, underlying what is singular about the region and its relevance for the broader global migration debate.

Ayselin Yildiz (UNESCO Chair on International Migration at Yasar University, Turkey), Luisa Faustini Torres (GRITIM-UPF Ph.D. Candidate), and Abdellatif Bensfia* (Professor and Deputy Director of ISIC Rabat, Morocco) will be composing the roundtable, while Zouhair El Hairan (GRITIM-UPF Ph.D. Candidate) will be chairing it, and Hélène Thiollet (CNRS Permanent Researcher at CERI-Sciences Po, France, and Sabbatical Researcher at GRITIM-UPF) will participate as a discussant.

Time: 9h30-11h15
