Refugee and Migration Studies

Refugee and Migration Studies is an academic field that explores the causes, experiences, and impacts of people moving across borders. It examines why individuals become refugees fleeing conflict or persecution, as well as voluntary migration for work or family reasons. The field analyzes policies, legal frameworks, social integration, and the challenges faced by migrants and refugees. Its goal is to better understand migration phenomena to inform fair policies, support human rights, and improve the well-being of those on the move. Essentially, it helps us comprehend and address global displacement and movement from a multidisciplinary perspective.
