About REMESO

About The Institute for Research on Migration, Ethnicity and Society

REMESO’s conducts research synthesizing economic, ecological, technological, social, and cultural dynamics to understand social discrimination, migration, social justice, and social inclusion.

We seek to explore and explain how migration and displacement are caused by forces and events such as socioeconomic inequalities, precarious livelihoods, unfair labour conditions, climate change, and armed conflict. We examine how migration processes are met and managed by local, national, international, and geopolitical regimes of inclusion and exclusion.
