Dear All,
We are happy and proud to announce the publication of our latest book:
Grabska, Katarzyna, Marina de Regt and Nicoletta Del Franco (2019), ‘Adolescent Girls' Migration in The Global South: Transitions into Adulthood’. Palgrave Studies on Children and Development. New York: Palgrave Macmillan.
This book provides a nuanced, complex, comparative analysis of adolescent girls’ migration and mobility in the Global South. The stories and the narratives of migrant girls collected in Bangladesh, Ethiopia and Sudan guide the readers in drawing the contours of their lives on the move, a complex, fluid scenario of choices, constraints, setbacks, risks, aspirations and experiences in which internal or international migration plays a pivotal role. The main argument of the book is that migration of adolescent girls intersects with other important transitions in their lives, such as those related to education, work, marriage and childbearing, and that this affects their transition into adulthood in various ways. While migration is sometimes negative, it can also offer girls new and better opportunities with positive implications for their future lives.
The book explores also how concepts of gendered adolescence and adulthood for girls are being transformed in the context of migration.
