6 Guest Professorship in Memory of Willy Brandt

The Guest Professorship in International Migration and Ethnic Relations (IMER) in Memory of Willy Brandt is a gift to Malmö University financed by the City of Malmö. It was donated to The School of IMER on the occasion of the inauguration of Malmö University on 31 August 1998, and signed by Ilmar Reepalu, Chairman of the Municipal Executive Board. Between 1998 and 2007 the Guest Professorship in Memory of Willy Brandt was placed at the School of IMER and since 2007 has been housed at MIM.

The purpose of the Guest Professorship is to strengthen research at Malmö University in the field of IMER. The City of Malmö sought, via the Guest Professorship, to reinforce contacts with international experts in order to ensure that they would become an integral part of research and teaching in the field of IMER. To this end, an internationally oriented Guest Professorship creates a constant exchange of knowledge and ideas and enhances Malmö University’s academic strength clustered at MIM. During their stays, the Guest Professors share their expertise with a wide audience of academics, students and the interested public in a series of lectures and debates at the university as well as open lectures at Malmö City Library co-organised with Europa Direkt.

Willy Brandt Guest Professor 2019:

Ellen Percy Kraly

Dr. Kraly holds the William R. Kenan, Jr. Professorship of Geography and Environmental Studies at Colgate University. She is also Chair of the Scientific Panel on International Migration of the International Union for the Scientific Study of Population and is organizing a workshop on the demography of refugees for the U.S. National Academy of Sciences. Her published scholarship has addressed the demography of refugee and forced migration, relationship between immigration and US

population and environment, emigration, international migration statistics, immigrant incorporation, and population data systems and human rights.

Dr. Kraly was a member of the National Academy of Sciences Panel on Immigration Statistics and has prepared reports on topics including international migration data and immigration policies for the

United Nations Statistical Commission, National Academy of Sciences, US Immigration and Naturalization Service, US Census Bureau and US Commission on Immigration Reform. She teaches

th

_{Annual Conference of IMISCOE}

Understanding International Migration in the 21st Century:

Conceptual and Methodological Approaches

In the unusually sweltering Swedish summer days of June 2019, Malmö University had the pleasure of hosting the 16th Annual IMISCOE Conference. Malmö Institute of Studies of Migration, Diversity, and Welfare (MIM) organized the 158 sessions, welcoming 750 participants. The conference included inspiring keynotes by renowned scholars Douglas Massey and Bridget Anderson, who spoke about the Anatomy of a Train Wreck: U.S. Immigration Policy Before and After Trump, and on Migration Studies – Making a difference, respectively.

This was the second time MIM organized the IMISCOE conference, the first time being in 2013. The institute was established in 2007 and has since become the largest migration research institute in the Nordic countries, as well as an important actor in the same

research context within Europe at large. MIM has between 30-40 affiliated researchers, and our research focuses entirely on International Migration and its consequences, with topics such as migrant integration, host population attitudes towards migrants, ethnic and religious minorities, citizenship, and policy analysis. MIM relies on both internal university funding, as well as external grants. Researchers from MIM have in recent years been succesful in attaining funding for several different projects from Horizon 2020, the Swedish Research Council, and Formas, amongst others. The institute also holds an annual Guestprofessorship in the Memory of Willy Brandt, funded by the City of Malmö, which has welcomed prominent scholars such as Rainer Bauböck, Thomas Faist, Yasmin Soysal, Ewa Morawska, Nina Glick Schiller, Peggy Levitt, Russell King, Ellen Kraly, Miri Song, and, currently, Magdalena Nowicka.

The 16th annual IMISCOE Conference took place in Niagara, the Malmö University’s newest building, which MIM also calls home. According to the evaluation survey MIM conducted during the conference, the venue facilitated what participants in general described as a very well organized

(9)

conference. The session rooms were easy to find and the Niagara restaurant stood for the catering of simple, but tasty meals to enjoy in the breaks. On the first evening a more formal dinner also took place in Malmö Town Hall, were invited speakers and conference staff, amongst others, were invited to attend. The conference dinner in the venue Slagthuset – ‘the slaughterhouse’ – was also very much appreciated, and allowed for plenty of informal mingling and good conversation in one of Malmö’s historical industrial buildings.

Of the participants this year 49 percent attended the IMISCOE conference for the first time, while 51 percent were returnees, showing an even balance. This balanced spread should also be seen in relation to the progressive increase in returnees, as can be appreciated in the graph below.

(10)

Worth noting is also that of all submitted paper proposals, only around 50 percent were accepted, reflecting the increased interest in the IMISCOE network and conference, and the possible need to perhaps increase the scale of the yearly conference even more in the future.

In the evaluation survey distributed among participants this year’s conference was especially lauded for generally fulfilling the expectations (8 of 10 points on average) of the participants, and the organization on local level also received a high score (8.6 of 10 points). The satisfaction with most elements, both practical and academic, was relatively high, at around 7.5 of 10 points on average. Examples of these elements are the panels and workshops overall, the plenaries, the satisfaction with panel participants, the structure of the academic program as well as the individual sessions, and the online registration. However, certain issues did leave significant room for improvement, such as the performance of discussants (5.7 of 10) and chairs (6.1 of 10) in the sessions, as well as the PhD workshops in general (6.1 of 10).

Other, more detailed, feedback received via the open questions in the evaluation survey addressed issues such as the academic level of the presentations, expressing an overall split view of the academic rigor with which paper proposals are accepted to the conference. Some suggest decreasing the overall number of presentations in order to achieve a higher standard, whilst others were more satisfied with the presentations they had attended. Another issue was the frequency of cancellations and the lack of communication around these. A better system for communicating program changes needs to be put in place, and one attendee suggested an app, as is used in other conferences of IMISCOE’s magnitude. Lastly, there were several comments regarding diversity. The foci of the conference received some critique in that there is a need for looking across European academic borders and connect with non-European and non-Western researchers and topics. However, the fact that invited plenary speakers to a large degree were women was much appreciated.

Overall, MIM, as the organizer

were very satisfied with the work done, including the collaboration with the conference staff and student volunteers. MIM thanks all who participated, and relays a special thank you to Warda Belabas at the IMISCOE office for her invaluable help organizing the conference. We thoroughly enjoyed hosting this year’s conference and are looking forward to see you all next year in Luxembourg.

16 Research projects at MIM 2019

MIM conducts analytical and critical work in various fields of academic research dedicated to migration and integration. Our research is multidisciplinary, pursued in collaboration with international partners, and funded either nationally or by the EU. The research can be classified under the following four themes: • migration and mobility

• integration of new immigrants

• attitudes and views on international migration and ethnic relations • education, citizenship and welfare

The centre disseminates evidence-based research to inform policy makers both regionally, nationally and internationally.

Our research is divided between ethnographic and quantitative projects that engage with the lives of migrants and projects that deal with issues such as the representation of migration in media, cultural institutions, and public attitudes. Additionally, we study the causes and effects of migration with regard to both policy and discourse.

Our researchers are engaged in multiple collaborative projects, both locally and internationally, with the aim of increasing understanding of MIM’s focal research areas.

GOVCIT - Governing and experiencing Citizenship in Multicultural Scandinavia Pieter Bevelander

Funding: Peace Research Institute OSLO (PRIO) (2015-2019) Read more

What are the relationships between policies and laws on citizenship and experiences of belonging,

recognition and sense of community? This project will shed new light on relationships between citizenship and integration by studying top-down policies and bottom-up lived experiences.Considering the

homogeneity in the Scandinavian countries, the discrepancy in current citizenship regulation is remarkable. However, overall, citizenship in Scandinavia has become eroded, as most substantial rights are attached to permanent residency. We will study these citizenship policies through document analysis and interviews with civil servants and we will also learn about the experiences of immigrants and descendants, as citizens or prospective citizens, through a Scandinavian survey. In Norway we also use ethnographic methods to capture lived experiences of people living in a diverse society. We are interested in the lived experiences of people both with and without an immigrant background, living in urban areas with diverse populations, and in scarcely populated areas far away from Oslo.

FAMAC Doing Family across Borders - A Comparative Study of Work, Family and Welfare Strategies among Polish Migrants in Norway, Sweden, and the UK

Funding: Research Council of Norway (2016-2019) Read more

FAMAC is an interdisciplinary research project dealing with Polish migration in Norway, Sweden and the UK. The project seeks to explore how

transnational family considerations, combined with labour market conjuncture and migrants' rights to welfare provision in the host country, shape migrant workers' relation to work and welfare. FAMAC uses both quantitative and qualitative research methods.

Support Platform for Migration and Health, MILSA 2.0

Slobodan Zdravkovic

Funding: EU, The Asylum, Migration and Integration fund, AMIF (2016-2020)

Participants: Katarina Carlzén, Länsstyrelsen, Elisabeth Mangrio, Peter Håkansson, Malmö University, Ragnar Westerling, Uppsala University.

This project aims to contribute to the body of knowledge,

methodology, and policy development pertaining to the effects that migration has on health in order to promote more efficient integration. The health situation of adults, families, and young people is explored, as well as the effects of an extended society orientation spread to several social arenas linked to social capital, sense of context, and the ability to absorb information. MILSA is a research-based support and development platform for a health- promoting labour market establishment. The research combines information regarding the needs of the target group as well as the practical application of knowledge-based establishment efforts. The expected outcome is targeted and health-oriented establishment efforts that improve the conditions for more efficient integration on equal terms.

NIEM - The National Integration Evaluation Mechanism Sayaka Osanami Törngren, Pieter Bevelander and Henrik Emilsson

Funding: The Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund, AMIF (2016-2020) Read more

This is a six-years long transnational project which aims to prepare key actors in the integration field in 15 EU Member States to better face the current challenges and improve the integration outcomes of

beneficiaries of international protection. NIEM will establish a mechanism for a biennial, comprehensive evaluation of the integration of beneficiaries of international protection to provide evidence on gaps in integration standards, identify promising practices and evaluate the effects of legislative and policy

changes.NIEM is led by IPA, the Institute of Public Affairs in Warsaw. MPG, the Migration Policy Group, is the coordinating research partner responsible for elaboration and further development of the NIEM indicators and the comprehensive comparative reports. Other strategic partners are the UNHCR

Representation in Poland and UNHCR Regional Representation for Central Europe in Budapest, the Polish Ministries of Interior and Administration and of Family, Labour and Social Policy, and the University of Warsaw.

GLIMER – Governance and local integration of migrants and Europe’s refugees.

Erica Righard

Joint Programme Initiative (JPI) within the H2020, the Swedish part financed by FORMAS.(2017–2020)

www.glimer.eu

The overarching aim of the GLIMER project is to generate

theoretically informed and empirically grounded knowledge that may

function to support policy-makers and stakeholders to cultivate durable solutions in the governance of local integration of migrants and refugees in Europe. The GLIMER consortium consists of partners from Italy and Cyprus (two landing points for many refugees as they first enter the EU) and UK and Sweden (two countries seen as final destinations), and the cases focus on new arrivals in the areas in and around Consenza, Nicosia, Glasgow and Malmö.

Based in an understanding of the link between governance and integration at the local level, the project will examine emergent systems of co-responsibitliy between local and national agencies in their responses to managing the integration of migrants and refugees.

The GLIMER project is a Joint Programme Initiative (JPI) under the H2020 and was selected for funding by ERA-NET Cofund Smart Urban Futures (ENSUF). The project consortium consists of five partners: University of Strathclyde, University of Calabria, Malmö University, Mediterranean of Gender Studies in Cyprus, and University of Stirling. The consortium is led by Nasar Meer, Strathclyde University, and Swedish part is led by Erica Righard and funded by FORMAS (The Swedish Research Council for Environment, Agricultural Sciences and Spatial Planning).

MISTRA International Migration and Urban Development Erica Righard

Funding: Mistra Urban Futures, City of Malmö, Malmö University, Lund University and Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (2018-2019)

Co-workers: Henrik Emilsson, Malmö University Read more

The Scania region, in principal the city of Malmö, is what we, at least by Nordic measures, can call a migration gateway. Towards the end of the nineteenth century, Malmö was a major harbor of migrant departure, and it is today an important hub of immigrant arrival in Sweden. This was not least the case in the fall of 2015 when the number of asylum applications peaked in Sweden.

The region is fast growing. Its population and economic growth depend on immigration. It is also a region with comparatively large inequalities, with foreign born being overrepresented in the poor segments of the population. Its media representation is dominated by negative descriptions of conflicts and criminality, often as related to immigration, not least in international media reporting. Both popular, political and academic debates about the develop in Malmö tend to get polarized, this panel aim at contributing to this debate building on empirically relevant and theoretically sound research.

The purpose of the International Migration and Urban Development (IMUD) Panel is to address this contentious field of research and urban development. It consists of members with relevant fields of expertise recruited from the Local Interactive Platform (LIP) partners: City of Malmö, Lund University, Malmö University and Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences. Its work is organized into four work packages, which have been identified in a collaborative process relying on different perspectives and needs from research and practice.

SEGMIX – Governance and lived experiences of urban diversity in SEGregated and MIXed

neighbourhoods. Erica Righard

Financed by FORMAS. (2018–2021)

Co-workers: Tina Gudrun Jensen and Rebecka Söderberg, Malmö University.

This study is part of the scholarly and political concern about urban diversity and ethnic housing segregation. It inscribes itself in the renewed focus on diversity and ‘everyday multiculturalism’ within qualitative studies. It is also associated with critical perspectives on gender and see to housing segregation as gendered processes. It set out to ‘link perspectives’ and is comparative in its approach. Focus is on how urban diversity is managed in national and local policies and interventions, and in everyday practices in mixed and segregated neighourhoods in Malmö and Copenhagen. This makes an interesting case since urban diversity is managed through similar welfare, and diverging migration, regimes in these cities. The methodology combines policy analysis with ethnographic field studies in three neighbourhoods in Malmö and Copenhagen respectively. Analytically the project sees to the meaning of urban diversity as a lived experience in neighbourhoods withdifferent characteristics, urban diversity as a lived experience in relation to how it is managed in national and local policy and interventions, and how this can be understood when thinking across cities in similar welfare and diverging migration and integration regimes. Through this comparative approach this project seek to offers insights into best practices that contribute to social sustainability in Swedish cities and beyond. The results will disseminated through academic publishing, Urban Labs, and policy briefs.

NoVaMIGRA - Norms and Values in the European Migration and Refugee Crisis Brigitte Suter

Funding: Horizon 2020 Project (2018-2021)

Co-workers: Christian Fernández, Ingrid Jerve Ramsøy and Franziska Böhm, Malmö University. https://novamigra.eu/

Several, partly interconnected crises have profoundly challenged the European project in recent years. Among them especially the reactions to the arrival of 1.25 million refugees in 2015 called into question the idea(l) of a unified Europe guaranteeing the rights of refugees and implementing norms and values many see contained in the Community acquis. With a unique combination of social scientific analysis, as well as legal and

philosophical normative reconstruction and theory, NoVaMigra will develop a precise descriptive and normative understanding of the current “value crisis”, assess possible evolutions of European values, and consider Europe’s future in light of rights, norms, and values that it should aim at and that could contribute to overcoming the crisis.

Its overall aim is to make an impact on both research and practice by understanding and improving the dynamics of integration in Jordan, Croatia, Germany and Sweden. A special emphasis is put on identifying and capitalising on the psychological and social factors that foster successful integration and really help us to live well together. Two researchers 50% for three years and for one 10%.

This project has received funding from the European Union Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 822401 (FOCUS).

The goal of FOCUS is to increase the understanding of and to provide effective and evidence-based solutions for the challenges of forced migration within host communities. By doing so, it also aims at contributing to increased tolerance, peaceful coexistence, and reduced radicalization across Europe and the Middle East. Based on a comprehensive mapping and trans-disciplinary, multi-site field research conducted in Jordan, Croatia, Germany and Sweden, FOCUS explores the socio-psychological dimensions of refugee and host-community relations and analyses the socio-economic integration of refugees and the

consequences of this in host societies.

This knowledge is then used to transform and strengthen existing promising solutions for social and labour market integration. The integration solutions will be pilot tested in at least five European countries by governmental and non-governmental end-users. The solutions are finally brought together in the Refugee and Host Community Toolbox, which will support policy makers, municipal actors, civil society

organisations and other stakeholders in responding to the needs of both refugees and host communities and thereby act as agents of change in this field.

Recent advances within healthcare and medical research have been uneven globally, but also within nation-states, with the result that there is growing interest in the relevance of both environmental and genomic factors in determining how best to treat patients and ensure a healthy society. At the

same time, health has become an increasingly central issue within how societies mark out their borders and internal structures, excluding those without the sufficient residency papers, or segregating access along wealth, racial, or gender lines. In that context, health practitioners have spoken increasingly of ’Precision Health’, meaning greater understanding and collection of data that is sensitive to these disparities so as to better tailor healthcare towards different communities, both to enhance well-being, but counter the worst consequences of societal inequalities. Drawing on the Social Sciences, health is understood as a central mechanism not only for enhancing welfare, but also through which everyday people experience being part of society. For over two decades, scholars working in both the Health and Social Sciences have spoken of ’Health Democracy’ – using democratic models to enhance patient access to healthcare, but also to better study the role of healthcare and medical research within society. We use the term ’everyday democracy’ to move further in that direction, understanding mundane medical and health interactions as fundamental to the shaping of contemporary society. Health, healthcare, and medical research have significant impact upon

how citizenship – both as legally codified and practiced – is experienced, but also the extent to which a society is maintained.

PHED is an international consortium led by Lund and Malmö Universities, involving the University of Texas, Baylor College of Medicine, the Sorbonne University, Umeå University, University College Copenhagen and the Federal University Rio de Janeiro.

At Malmo University, it is a cross-faculty collaboration between the Faculty of Culture and Society (Dept. of Global Political Studies) and the Faculty of Health and Society (Dept. of Care Sciences), and will be hosted by the Reseach Centre Malmö Institute for Studies of Migration, Diversity and Welfare (MIM).

TiMS - Tourism in Multicultural Societies Sayaka Osanami Törngren

Funding: FORMAS (2019-2022)

Co-workers: Pieter Bevelander, Caroline Adolfsson and Thomas Pederson, Malmö University. Read more

Tourism and the tourism industry have been criticized for contributing to a uni-dimensional view of culture and people, which (re)produces stereotypic images, discredited histories and romantic fantasies. There is a risk that tourism reduces places to monocultures where the complexity that makes them interesting disappear. No modern society has only a culture, language or identity. Globalization, migration and other intercultural exchanges changes places. Inclusion and participation are increasingly highlighted in tourism and place branding literature. However, tourism and place branding have rarely been associated with concepts such as integration, migration and multiculturalism. TiMS’ objective is to explore the role of tourism in multicultural societies, in Sweden and beyond, as well as to act for the inclusion and

representation of diversity in tourism development and place branding.

The main purpose of this research project is to contribute to scientific knowledge to tackle consequences of climate and environmental changes in urban areas of the Global South. The project will strengthen applied studies on urban sustainable development according to the Sustainable Development Goal 11, also known as the Urban Sustainable Development Goal (USDG). This project therefore aims to explore urban community resilience and the initiatives of social cohesion, that are participatory and inclusive and help mitigate climate change and adapt to increasingly challenging conditions in urban areas. In order to face environmental threats, at the roots of growing inequalities, there is a scholarly need to better understand the proactive or reactive acts of resilience that urban communities develop themselves. Dealing with the Sustainable Development Goal 10 and 13, this project also highlights the ways communities in a specific urban neighbourhood contribute to enhance a sustainable climate action and strengthen efforts to reduce inequalities.

HumMingBird - Enhanced migration measures from a multidimensional perspective.

Haodong Qi and Pieter Bevelander

The project is funded by EUROPEAN COMMISSION’s Horizon 2020 - Research and Innovation Framework Programme), together with other 15 European research institutes. (2020 – 2023)

The significance of migration as a social, political and broader public concern has intensified significantly. Migration is increasingly seen as a high-priority

policy issue by many governments and politicians throughout the world. A deeper understanding of the root causes and drivers of migration and of their interrelation with people’s propensity to migrate is needed as well as projections and scenarios that are essential for appropriate planning and effective policymaking. Overall improving migration data is a crucial step to improving migration governance since better data is needed in order to bring about sustainable social and economic development and national migrant data strategies are needed to inform good policies.

HumMingBird’s overall aim is to improve understandings of changing nature of migration flows and the drivers of migration, to analyze patterns and motivations and new geographies and to calculate population estimates and determine emerging trends and future trends and accordingly identify possible future implications of today’s policy decisions. Moreover, we aim to develop migration scenarios in a more forward-looking manner that takes into account both quantitative and qualitative perspectives of different migration actors impact people’s decisions to migrate and trends from that will have an impact on our societies. Global scenarios will base on not only a realistic understanding of the drivers and dynamics of migration, but also on the effects and effectiveness of past migration policies. Projects ambitions are to identify the uncertainties and reappraise, to explore the reasons why migration predictions may not hold and to demonstrate non-traditional data sources for migration research.

MIMY - Empowerment through liquid Integration of Migrant Youth in vulnerable conditions Henrik Emilsson

Funding: Horizon 2020, call MIGRATION-03-2019 on Social and economic effects of migration in Europe and integration policies (2020-2023)

The overall objective of MIMY is to investigate the integration processes of young migrants (aged between 18 and 29) and minors (15-17) who are third country nationals at risk and who find themselves in vulnerable conditions. The main aim of MIMY is to focus on the integration processes of young migrants and to understand their daily intercultural relations with the local population which leads to the main research question of: How to support the liquid integration processes of young migrants in vulnerable conditions in Europe to increase social and economic benefits of and for migrants?

Conviviality at the Crossroads: The Poetics and Politics of Everyday

Encounters. Houndmills, Basingstoke: Palgrave Macmillan (Print ISBN

Conviviality has lately become a catchword not only in academia but also among political activists. This open access book discusses conviviality in relation to the adjoining concepts cosmopolitanism and creolisation. The urgency of today’s global predicament is not only an argument for the revival of all three concepts, but also a reason to bring them into dialogue. Read more about the book.

Bevelander, Pieter & Ruth Wodak (Eds.) 2019.

Europe at the Crossroads, Confronting Populist, Nationalist, and Global challenges.

Nordic Academic Press: Lund

The extreme right wing is on the rise. And there are signs that part of the political mainstream in Europe, the US, and beyond is considering going along with far-right populist parties and their divisive, ethno-nationalist programmes.

Europe at the Crossroads is an urgent scholarly response to the sociopolitical challenges that far-right programmes pose to the idea of a more egalitarian world. It offers an interdisciplinary explanation and critique of the dynamics of the far right in Europe – from Poland to the UK, from Sweden to Greece. The authors present immediate alternatives when tackling the exclusionary rhetoric and the politics of resentment. Read more about the book.
