Co-sponsored by the Sussex Centre for Migration Research (SCMR) and the Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies (JEMS), emergent and early career scholars will present their original research addressing contemporary issues of international migration throughout the Americas. Ranging from examining the effects of displacement in the Caribbean to the communities that migrants build in Mexico and Central and South America during transit, this conference will be timely and enlightening for all attendees.

See PDF of conference schedule for panel information. Room details will be sent to registrants the day prior to the conference.
