[Commlist] Digitized Global Mobilities Seminar & Workshop

You are cordially invited to our two day seminar & workshop  entitled 
“Digitized Global Mobilities” we are organising at Utrecht University on 
3 - 4 June 2019.

This international event seeks to address questions on the digital 
features of forced mobility; how technology shapes the approaches of 
migrant’ security, particularly the unintended effects of digitization 
and social media use. The workshops aims to bring together multiple 
stakeholders: NGO representatives, social workers, media representatives 
(e.g. Dutch Refugee Council, Dutch Association for Migration Research, 
European institutions, IOM, UNHCR) and academics.

The first day of our event is a Seminar with invited speakers from 
different disciplines, the second day is organised in Workshops to 
facilitate interactive knowledge exchange and inclusion of visual 
material. For the Workshop sessions we invite papers, films and art 
works that rethink issues of the ‘digital’ in the study of human 
mobility and security.

  * Prof. Dr. Myria Georgiou, London School of Economics and Political
    Science
  * Prof. Dr. Katerina Linos, UC Berkeley School of Law
  * Dr. Annalisa Pelizza, University of Twente
