IES Research - Migration, Diversity and Justice

Issues of migration and diversity are central to European integration. The European Union is characterized by mobility both within its borders and beyond. People move to and within the Union thanks to combinations of historical, economic, social and political factors, anticipating prospects of improved lives and opportunities. Opinion surveys and political events bear witness to the concerns of citizens all over Europe on these topics. The criteria for dealing with diversities as well as accepting immigrants and integrating them into our societies are important topics in public discourse.

The research cluster focuses on migration, immigrant integration, justice and home affairs as well as diversity policies (from the local level right up to the European Union and United Nations). We concentrate in particular on the following sub-themes:

The polarisation and contestation of the free movement regime in Europe.
The politics of refugee protection and migration control: asylum, border control, migration and immigrant integration policies of the EU and its member states; solidarity and burden-sharing in Europe; EU cooperation with countries of migrants’ origin and transit.
Justice and equality policies in an increasingly diverse Europe: community formation and cohesion in increasingly heterogeneous European societies.

Our team includes several professors, postdocs, PhD researchers, research associates and interns with backgrounds in political science, law, sociology and anthropology. Our activities include teaching, fundamental and applied research and consultancy. We lead or contribute to EU- and nationally funded projects and are in close interactions with specialized research networks. We strive to be a hub for all research related issues on migration, diversity and justice in Brussels and welcome researchers, policymakers and individuals willing to engage with us.

Our team members also coordinate the Brussels Interdisciplinary Research centre on Migration and Minorities (BIRMM). It joins over 100 VUB researchers from diverse disciplines working on migration and diversity related topics.
