The process of migration can have an important impact on both destination and source countries. Migrants and their children who maintain ties to their country of origin, whether familial, cultural, social, economic, political or other, are referred to as members of diasporas. Among diaspora groups, distinct historic experiences and narratives have contributed to important variations in ongoing relationships with countries of origin and patterns of identity formation in countries of adoption. Over recent decades, changing migration patterns, globalization and technological advances have both facilitated and made more complex, these multifaceted relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In destination countries, responses to migration trends have generated both challenges and opportunities. Growing fears and anxieties about immigration levels, for instance, have reinforced tendencies to regard migrants, whether designated as exiles, expatriates, alien residents, transnationals, dual\/multiple-citizens or refugees, as \u2018the other\u2019 in their countries of adoption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On January 30 and 31, 2025, the Metropolis Institute and partners will hold an international conference on Migration, Diasporas and Settlement. The aim is to reflect on how evolving diaspora engagement affects policies and practices in migrant sending and migrant receiving counties. We invite submissions in a variety of formats (workshops, roundtables and posters) that include but are not limited to the topics mentioned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Proces migracji mo\u017ce mie\u0107 istotny wp\u0142yw zar\u00f3wno na kraje docelowe, jak i kraje pochodzenia. Migranci i ich potomkowie, kt\u00f3rzy utrzymuj\u0105 z krajem pochodzenia wi\u0119zi rodzinne, kulturowe, spo\u0142eczne, ekonomiczne, polityczne czy inne, s\u0105 okre\u015blani jako cz\u0142onkowie diaspor. Odmienne do\u015bwiadczenia historyczne i narracje rozmaitych grup diaspory przyczyni\u0142y si\u0119 do istotnych r\u00f3\u017cnic w ich bie\u017c\u0105cych relacjach z krajami pochodzenia i wzorcach kszta\u0142towania to\u017csamo\u015bci tych grup w przybranych ojczyznach. Zmieniaj\u0105ce si\u0119 ostatnich dziesi\u0119cioleciach wzorce migracji, globalizacja i post\u0119p technologiczny zar\u00f3wno u\u0142atwi\u0142y, jak i skomplikowa\u0142y te wieloaspektowe relacje.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

W krajach docelowych reakcje na trendy migracyjne przynios\u0142y zar\u00f3wno wyzwania, jak i mo\u017cliwo\u015bci. Na przyk\u0142ad rosn\u0105ce obawy i niepokoje zwi\u0105zane z poziomem imigracji wzmocni\u0142y w tych krajach tendencje do postrzegania migrant\u00f3w jako \u201einnych\u201d- niezale\u017cnie od tego, czy s\u0105 oni postrzegani jako wygna\u0144cy, emigranci, cudzoziemcy, bezpa\u0144stwowcy, obywatele wielu pa\u0144stw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instytut Metropolis i jego partnerzy dniach 30 i 31 stycznia 2025 r. organizuj\u0105 mi\u0119dzynarodow\u0105 konferencj\u0119 na temat migracji, diaspor i osiedle\u0144. Jej celem jest refleksja nad tym, w jaki spos\u00f3b zmieniaj\u0105ca si\u0119 aktywno\u015b\u0107 diaspory wp\u0142ywa na polityk\u0119 i obyczaje w krajach wysy\u0142aj\u0105cych i przyjmuj\u0105cych migrant\u00f3w. Zapraszamy do nadsy\u0142ania zg\u0142osze\u0144 udzia\u0142u w konferencji w r\u00f3\u017cnych formatach (warsztaty, okr\u0105g\u0142e sto\u0142y i plakaty), obejmuj\u0105cych mi\u0119dzy innymi poni\u017csze tematy.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n
