The Programme for the Study of Global Migration publishes online research papers on global migration since 2010.

Created in January 2008, the Programme for the Study of Global Migration is devoted to the interdisciplinary study of migration linked to armed conflicts, generalized violence, persecution and ecological disasters. The Programme also focuses on the phenomenon of 'economic migration' and its contemporary implications such as, for example, migration and development.
In line with those objectives, the Programme invites you to submit high quality research papers addressing global migration issues from a variety of perspectives. Interdisciplinary approaches are especially encouraged. Papers can either reflect work in progress or present the final output of a research. The papers will be reviewed by experts from the Graduate Institute before being published.
