📢 Call for Participation in the international PhD Spring School Production of Migration
🏢 organized by the Collaborative Research Centre "Production of Migration" (SFB 1604)
📌 at Osnabrück University
🗓️ April 14–17, 2026
⚠️ CV+500-word abstract as one document to [email protected] by November 15, 2025
flyer for the international PhD Spring School “Production of Migration” at the University of Osnabrück from 14 to 17 April 2026. A person looks at a wall with texts and a large blue circle that says “Talent is everywhere, opportunities are not”. Meanings and debates around migration differ greatly across contexts. Yet, in many regions, migration policies have shifted to the center stage in political conflicts and agendas. Migration discourses have become highly politicized and reductionist, often reflecting anti-immigration sentiments and xenophobic attitudes. For PhD students seeking to research migration in a nuanced and reflexive manner, engaging with these societal tensions and debates without reproducing politicized framings and categorizations poses a challenge. To create a space for exchange, the SFB 1604 ‘Production of Migration’ Integrated Research Training Group (IRTG) – a program comprising more than 20 PhD researchers – invites you to participate in an international and interdisciplinary PhD Spring School. We will explore migration as an academic phenomenon by considering multiple sites, actors and contexts and asking how, by whom, under which conditions and with what effects migration is ‘produced’. We understand the ‘production of migration’ in a broad sense as a cultural, historical, social or political practice and process. Departing from the reflexive turn in migration studies, we will ask how to conceptualize ‘migration’ in a more reflexive way and integrate post-colonial and intersectional perspectives into our research and debates. We critically engage with existing theories, methods, approaches, and categorizations across a wide range of disciplines. Our discussions will not be limited to the academic sphere but involve experiences and perspectives of the public and cultural sector. Parts of our activities will be interactive and in exchange with local actors. WHO CAN PARTICIPATE? We invite PhD researchers from the field of migration studies with original empirical, methodological or theoretical contributions at various stages of their PhD project, from all disciplines (for example sociology, political science, anthropology, human geography, history, law, psychology, critical race studi… CONFIRMED SPEAKERS Prof. em. Dr. Nina Glick Schiller (University of Manchester, United Kingdom), Prof. Dr. Janine Dahinden (University of Neuchâtel, Switzerland), Prof. Dr. Ayse Çaglar (University of Vienna, Austria), Prof. Dr. Shahram Khosravi (Stockholm University, Sweden), Dr. Nader Talebi (Humboldt University Berlin, Germany), and Prof. Dr. Valentina Mazzucato (Maastricht University, the Netherlands), Representatives of the IMISCOE PhD Network SUGGESTED TOPICS We welcome contributions on topics such as: . Knowledge production on migration . Reflexivity and reflexive approaches . Labor migration and negotiations of skills, skilling or recognition . Border practices . Infrastructures of migration . Postcolonial approaches . Processes of in- and exclusion . Gender and intersectional perspectives . Categorization processes . ‘Forced’ migration or climate-induced migration . The role of public media and ‘migration experts’ . Racism, anti-immigrant sentiments and discrimination . Belonging . Migration in international, European and human rights law APPLICATION AND PARTICIPATION If you are interested in participating, please send your CV and abstract (including tentative title) of a maximum of 500 words in one Word document to jullmann@uos.de until 15 November 2025. Please indicate if you would like to contribute with a poster presentation or a paper presentation. We will notify you of the decision by 1 December 2025. All participants will receive a certificate of attendance after the event. COSTS Participation in this event is free of charge. Coffee, snacks and lunch will be provided. For a limited number of participants who do not have their own institutional funding, we provide scholarships that fully or partly cover travel and accommodation costs.
