Today, Friday 29 January, Maria Hernandez-Carretero has successfully defended her doctoral thesis at the University of Oslo: Leaving to belong: migration, transnational connectedness and social becoming.
What images of Europe lie behind the wish to migrate? And who are the people who prefer to remain in their own country? A new policy brief, Who wants to go to Europe? (PRIO Policy Brief 04/2013) was launched at a breakfast seminar at PRIO today.
FIWON is a network at PRIO that aims to develop and promote competence on fieldwork-based research.
