Created in January 2008, The Programme for the Study of Global Migration, based at the Graduate Institute, 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.
