With this conference, the Centre for the Study of Migration brings together scholars, practitioners and performers from several continents. They work in the fields of: anthropology, geography, governance, languages, law, literature, media, medicine, philosophy, physics, and poltics. They will be expressing themselves through traditional academic papers, through poetry, through music, through film, through photography, and through insights from their daily practice. Based physically at the heart of Britain's migration story, we will have the option of a walking tour of London's East End and a conference dinner at a local Lebanese restaurant. We hope that you will join us and help us to explore Migration Across the Disciplines.
