Project objective

EuroMedMig PhD Network creates a sound community of leading DCs based on research excellence and following core research principles, being EuroMedMig the Interdisciplinary Research Network on Migrations in the Mediterranean coordinated by UPF, and its philosophy being that of promoting multilateral knowledge co-production on Migrations while ensuring geographic representativity and plurality of perspectives and disciplines. Against this background, 10 leading universities from all rims of the Mediterranean have joined efforts and engaged in this DN, which represents a quantum leap in training the next generation of researchers taking the Mediterranean as a regional scale of analysis. More specifically, this DN revolves around 3 main pillars: promoting research excellence; developing advanced training for DC, including methodological, ethical, conceptual and transferable skills training aiming at leveraging career prospects, and promoting inter-academic stays; and fostering policy and social dialogues by favouring policy-oriented research capable of influencing the scientific and the political debate in line with EU’s Euromed agenda. Regarding the latter, this DN seeks to establish connections with relevant multi-scale stakeholders and highly impactful policy recommendations will be produced. In turn, these efforts will enhance the role of Academia, and in particular, Academic Networks, in initiatives at the nexus of research, governance and policy. In particular, DCs will be able to develop their individual research projects in the following themes: Governance, policies and politics, taxonomies of motions and drivers of migration, social and cultural transformations, and economy and labour market. These themes will also guide all EuroMedMig PhD Network’s training cumulative activities. In order to ensure successful DCs progress, special attention will be devoted to the quality of supervision and mentoring, which will be key in leveraging DC's potential.
