Seeking Refuge in a Changing World is
a collaborative project that investigates a world of people in flux. In
a series of multidisciplinary explorations, we investigate the global
developments forcing people to seek refuge,
the motivations and experiences of the refugees themselves, the impact
of these migrations on sending and receiving communities, and the
political, social, environmental and cultural responses to the mass
migrations around the globe. This is a joint effort of the Institute
for Global Studies, Center for Austrian Studies, Center for German and
European Studies, Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies, Human
Rights Program, and Immigration History Research Center.
