Since 2015, the European Union has twice faced a significant influx of migrants and refugees, leading to what many denoted as migration/refugee crises. Most recently, the Russian aggression against Ukraine caused the largest migration flows in Europe since World War II. These developments raised questions concerning the EU´s asylum and migration policy, as well as relevant EU response mechanisms and their legal underpinnings. Globally, however, Europe is just one of the regions of the world facing mass migration. The special issue, therefore, aims at exploring legal responses to forced 
mass migration from the perspective of the different regions of the world.

How are major world-scale changes in contemporary society governed? How might global matters such as geopolitical shifts, ecological changes, economic restructuring, technological innovations, and pandemics be better governed? Addressing these complex questions requires innovative, interdisciplinary approaches and an open conversation between various stakeholders. To promote such conversations, the Global Transformations and Governance Challenges (GTGC) programme at Leiden University organizes an annual conference bringing together academics and practitioners whose work addresses the governance of complex global challenges. 

Violent conflicts set people into motion and change existing social relations. More specifically, large-scale wars and localised conflicts not only force people to flee from violence but transform pre-existing mobility patterns, often rupturing the rhythms and routes of movement.
