CALL FOR DELEGATES
SEEKING REFUGE, SEEKING RIGHTS, SEEKING A FUTURE
3rd Annual ESRC Postgraduate Student Conference on Forced Migration
13-14 May 2005, Oxford Brookes University, Oxford (UK)
Recognising the growing national and international interest in the
refugee phenomenon, reflected in the increasing number of students
working in the field of forced migration, this conference will bring
together students, practitioners and established academics working in a
range of disciplines to discuss issues related to forced migration and
asylum.
Following the success of the previous two conferences (Oxford 2003 and
Warwick 2004) this event, hosted by the Development and Forced Migration
Research Unit (DFM) at Oxford Brookes University and supported by the
ESRC Research Training and Development Activities, will follow a similar
ethos; entirely coordinated by students seeking to provide a relaxed and
supportive environment in which postgraduates can meet, present and
share their research and their experience and engage in discussion with
more experienced academics and practitioners.
