Project description
Upgrading academic studies in the field of migration
During the recent migration crisis, Serbia transformed into a migratory corridor and struggled to address these new challenges. Academic knowledge in this area was also limited. The EU-funded MIGREC project will support and coordinate the upgrade of the University of Belgrade with training opportunities for researchers and students in migration studies. The project will explore integration policies, development processes and administration of migration. The result will be the foundation of a migration, integration and governance research centre (MIGREC), which will also include the University of Sheffield in the UK and Greece’s Foundation for European and Foreign Policy and the Southeast European Research Centre.
Objective
MIGREC is a three year research capacity building project in the field of Migration Studies at the Faculty of Political Science
(FPN) of the University of Belgrade (UoB). The project focuses on upgrading UoB staff academic capacity in order to
contribute effectively to migration related research with policy impact on the rising challenges that Serbia faces today.
MIGREC will bring life to a joint, well-structured coordination and support approach designed to ensure an effective infusion
of state-of-the-art research knowledge in three areas that emerge as specific challenges: integration, the migration-development
nexus and migration governance. FPN is leading the MIGREC consortium, which also includes the University
of Sheffield, UK, the Hellenic Foundation for European and Foreign Policy, Greece and the Southeast European Research
Centre, Greece. MIGREC aims at upgrading migration related research excellence and impact at FPN and at coordinating
already existing dispersed academic knowledge throughout the University. The outcome of the project will be the creation of
a Migration, Integration and Governance Research Centre (MIGREC), which will ensure the sustainability of Migration Studies at
FPN through training, coordination and mentoring of staff and students, as well as, through the creation of a Research
Strategy and Agenda and a Doctoral Studies Program.
