Our co-founder, Nassim Majidi, participated remotely in the 21st IMISCOE Conference held in Lisbon on July 3 and July 4. She contributed as a presenter and panelist in three sessions:
Roundtable: Methodological Plurality and Reflexivity in Research on Return and Readmissions
Nassim discussed the usage of various policy categories on return and their analytical power in research. She explored how historical, decolonial, and alternative approaches can offer a broader understanding of the issue.
(De)constructing Migrants' Welcome Around the World Through Multi-Stakeholder Perspectives: Bringing in Space, Scale, and Geopolitics
Drawing from three African case studies conducted between 2022 and 2024 (Sfax, Addis Ababa, and Saint-Louis), Nassim deconstructed the notion of ‘integration’. She focused on the spatial modalities of 'integration', examining the growing divide between sovereign national policies and local or peripheral realities.
Constructing Refugees and Other Forced Migrants
In her presentation on "Women Left Behind: Reconceptualization of Forced Migration in Afghanistan," Nassim provided insights into the experiences and challenges faced by women in the context of forced migration.
