Using Scenarios in Academic Research to Study the Future: The Global
Migration Futures team at the International Migration Institute invites
you to a panel event moderated by Line Bonneau of the Institute for
Science, Innovation and Society.The panel includes:
Introductory and concluding remarks: James Martin, founder of the Oxford
Martin School
Migration: Hein de Haas, International Migration Institute
Organizational and governmental decision-making: Trudi Lang, Institute

The Global Migration Futures project explores the future of
international migration in North Africa and in Europe using a scenario
methodology.
Originally conceived as a tool for businesses, the scenario methodology
identifies and analyses experience-based knowledge about the future from
field-relevant experts to uncover sources of future risk and
opportunity. This event is a chance to share the project's initial
findings and discuss the method with other scholars employing scenarios
in their research. The event will be followed by a catered reception.
