Roundtables:
Youth Migration Trajectories In the Context of Forced Displacement
This roundtable would aim to bring together scholars in the field of youth migration and forced displacement in order to dive in-depth how both notions intertwine, why youth migration is strongly correlated with the forced displacement and how mixed migration methodology could help address the research comprehensiveness on that regard. Whether it will be human rights and legal standpoint or gendered dimension of displacement, it is critically important to outline what are the frameworks how youth navigate their life trajectories, belonging, identity, educational and professional aspirations, what are the challenges encountered in the host society and how forced displacement slowly transitions in the long-term integration within the destination countries. Scholars from all across the globe and especially researchers from the so-called 'Global South' are invited to participate in this roundtable and share their perspectives.
