Circle 1
invites everyone interested to take part in a round table on new social
movements in support of refugees. The aim of the round table is twofold: We
would like to hear about any social or civil movements in support of refugees in
as many countries as possible to help us in the work in the hopefully upcoming
new study circle “Understanding migration in the Nordic and Baltic countries”.
In this
circle we plan an outreach strategy to reach new inhabitants in the Nordic and
Baltic countries, among those academics with refugee background who have no or
little connection to Nordic academia yet. It will be a special aim to attract
and welcome such people. In this effort we will use civil networks in each
country as starting points to make contact. It will thus be very helpful for us
to hear about such networks.
The other
aim with the round table is to discuss the refugee situation in general, as
well as the relations between state, civil society movements, local citizens
and refugees. The round table will also be an opportunity to exchange experiences
on how civil movements can support refugees.
We welcome
you all in Circle 1 from 10-11. We will meet you in the reception at 10 and
guide you to our room (LA 21).
