CfP: The Migrant Nations Initiative of the United Nations Development Programme

Request for Papers and Programmes: The Migrant Nations Initiative of the United Nations Development Programme is requesting papers or links/introductions to programmes focused on digital livelihoods for displaced people.

The aim is to map existing initiatives and activities around the world at the nexus of livelihoods for displaced people and/or certain migrants, and digitalization (e.g. programmes, initiatives, or organisations building livelihoods through opportunities with digitalization). Papers (published or unpublished) will feed into the existing body of research, and interviews will be sought with programmes to learn more about their work. The final knowledge product will be shared with members of the UN, other international organisations, and key players in the fields of development and displacement.

Please send information or questions to Dr. Evan Easton-Calabria (Refugee Studies Centre, University of Oxford) at evan.easton-calabria@qeh.ox.ac.uk by Monday, May 20th, 2019.
