Thanks to everyone who attended and made this a very engaging discussion - one that will hopefully continue! 🙏
So much food for thought today after @knatter.bsky.social's presentation of shared work w/ @nwelfens.bsky.social at @oeaw.bsky.social. Between pol actors' use of knowledge & migration researchers' production of it – where lies the answer to the Q: Why does migration research have so little impact?"
