Latest Event
The conference: “Family and Migration” organized in January 2019 at the Centre Sèvres (Paris) by RefugeesLAB of IFCU with the support of the OFII. This conference aimed at creating partnerships for aid work in support of refugees and migrants around the world. By offering a space for collective reflection between academic institutions and NGOs we hope to contribute to solutions of the migration policy crisis. This conference marks a milestone in the creation of a more pragmatic RefugeesLAB focused on action research with migrants and their families.
