A call for evidence on the experiences of migrant and refugee students during the global lock-down

A 'call for evidence on the experiences of migrant and refugee students during the global lock-down' is being launched as part of the 'Learning for Citizenship' project. This is an initiative aiming to build an international network on 'good practice of inclusion, engagement, practical and emotional support for migrant and refugee students'.

The group currently includes the University of Nottingham (UK), the Autonomous University of Barcelona (Spain) and the University of Turin (Italy). Its first main activity was meant to be a conference at the University of Nottingham in May 2020, co-funded by the Social Policy Association (SPA). Because of the lock-down, we had to postpone the event till further notice. However, we believe it is now more important than ever to have a public discussion about the experiences of vulnerable young people of migrant background. Researchers and practitioners from across Europe and beyond are invited to get in touch in order to exchange and discuss views, evidence, good practice and solutions.
