On November 26-29th 2008, the second African Migration workshop will be convened by the Faculty of Letters and Social Sciences
of the Mohammed V University Rabat - Agdal and the International Migration Institute at the University of Oxford.
This workshop aims to contribute to the creation of a map of contemporary
African migration patterns through presentations of empirical research and to
discuss innovative methods and methodologies of migration research. This
year's workshop, entitled African migration research: methods and
methodology, seeks to highlight new techniques utilised by researchers
exploring migration in the African context and to provide room for discussion
and for an in-depth analysis of the benefits, disadvantages and potential of
innovative methodologies. The call for papers is open to scholars and
graduate students based in North African and sub-Saharan African
universities who are adopting original methodological approaches to
empirical migration research in Africa.
The deadline for the submission of abstracts is May 30th 2008 and, for the authors whose proposals are accepted, the deadline for submission of full papers is September 1st 2008.
