Dear colleagues,
Thanks to the support of the British Council’s Newton Fund and the São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP), we would like to to inform you of a workshop entitled “Migration, Trafficking, Sex Work and the Law” that will take place in Campinas, Brazil, in July 2019. This five-day workshop will bring together Brazilian and British early career scholars, policy makers and activists to critically consider the links between migration, human trafficking and sex work.
The Researcher Links programme will cover the travel and accommodation expenses of around 15 early career scholars/researchers from the UK (for definitions of these categories, please check the eligibility criteria in the link below).
Among the many themes we will investigate, we are especially interested in papers related to (i) Changes in governmental responses to sex-trafficking and human migration in the past 10 years (ii) the movement of Brazilians to Britain in the context of contemporary public policies regarding immigration and prostitution. We also hope to solicit papers that might shed historical light on these dual phenomena. Accordingly, a third theme of interest seeks to understand the moral panic surrounding European female migration in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and the international efforts to police and repress these population flows.
As part of this programme, we are now recruiting Early Career Researchers working in the following areas to participate in this workshop:
Sexual Trafficking
Prostitution, Sex Work, Sexual Labour
Sex Workers’ Rights
Female Emigrants
Labour Migration
Mobility
Migration Laws
Humanitarian and Anti-Trafficking Groups, Organisations, Individuals
International Protection
Anti-Sex trafficking policy
Public Health and Disease
The deadline for applications is 15 April 2019. Additional information and the application form can be found here: http://britishcouncilbrasil.nfrl-lee.sgizmo.com/s3/
The workshop is coordinated by Dr. Daniel Lee (University of Sheffield) and Dr. Adriana Piscitelli (State University of Campinas, UNICAMP, Brazil). Please direct all queries to Amanda Tavares: [log in to unmask]
