This event brings together three renowned scholars in migration, social policy and health to engage with Prof Jenny Phillimore (University of Birmingham), Prof Hannah Bradby (Uppsala University), Dr Tilman Brand (Leibniz-Institut für Präventionsforschung und Epidemiologie), Prof Simon Pemberton (Keele University) and Dr Beatriz Padilla (University of South Florida) about their new book Exploring Welfare Bricolage in Europe's Superdiverse Neighbourhoods recently published by Routledge.
The event is co-hosted by the Institute for Research into Superdiversity and the School of Social Policy at the University of Birmingham. It will be chaired by Professor Nando Sigona
About the book: Exploring Welfare Bricolage in Europe's Superdiverse Neighbourhoods focuses on increasing population diversity and what this means for how people and local health and welfare providers seek to address everyday health concerns. Using an innovative mixed methods approach crossing multiple disciplines this book offers insight into the complex and intricate actions which vary over space and time, implemented in four European countries each with different health and welfare traditions. The book introduces the concept of welfare bricolage using it as a mechanism to explore structures and rationales underpinning need and actions, and how resources are connected across welfare regimes and borders and within locales. The book illustrates how, in the face of increasingly marketized, cash-strapped, restrictive and institutionally racist welfare states and healthcare regimes, individuals and providers strive to meet need.
