Calls for papers
Published: 1 Jul 2016
“The People on the Move Working Group” in Turkey, composed of independent academics, and with the support of the Raoul Wallenberg Institute Turkey Program, is inviting researchers, academics, and doctoral students to Istanbul on 7-8 October to attend a Refugee Research Methodologies Workshop. We aim to organise a two-part workshop that would bring scholars from different disciplines together while conducting research on refugees. The first part is open to early and mid-career scholars. The workshop aims to set the scene for a fresh discussion on methodological issues in refugee research. In the second part of the workshop – after specifying the emerging themes for a discussion – several prominent scholars will be invited to reflect upon the selected papers from the first part.
Paper proposals should be submitted by 15 August 2016 in the form of a 500-word abstract with an accompanying short biography (including name, title, and affiliation where appropriate). At the end of the workshop, there will be publication options for the selected papers.
