DYNAMIG is a new international research and policy project that will analyse the decision-making of potential and actual migrants, and how migrants’ decisions and behaviour – and migration processes more broadly – are perceived and understood by policy actors. DYNAMIG will have a strong focus on migration from and within Africa. Led by the Kiel Institute for the World Economy, the DYNAMIG consortium includes eight research institutions across Europe and Africa, including the EUI’s Migration Policy Centre (MPC).

The ITEM annual conference in Groningen will focus on the impact of border regions on security, health and energy supply for the inhabitants of Europe’s internal borders. The current social developments in the fields of energy, health and safety still show that in order to tackle barriers, it is important to work together with partners on both sides of the border to arrive at the right casuistry, a joint concrete agenda and a structural approach. The current discussion around energy and the cross-border aspects involved require stronger inter-governmental governance (multilevel governance). 

In Prof. Siegel’s latest video she focuses on her next country case study produced by the MIGNEX project. This particular video focuses on the two research areas in Guinea. 

In this video, Melissa Siegel looks at a project evaluating the integration policies of European countries for those who are beneficiaries of international protection. “Beneficiaries of international protection” is a broad term that applies to many types of migrants who have fled their home countries to seek protection abroad. While we’ll primarily use the term “refugee” in this video, the project’s goals apply to asylum seekers, people with temporary protection, and resettled refugees. The National Integration Evaluation Mechanism (NIEM) is a six-years long transnational project supporting key actors in the integration field to improve the integration outcomes of beneficiaries of international protection.
