    Trinity hosts Migration Research Fair, Sept 2007

    By Noreen Bowden | September 12, 2007

    Trinity’s Immigration Initiative will host its Migration Research Fair on 24 September at Trinity College, Dublin.

    The aim is to showcase, map and share academic research on migration in Ireland through a gathering of academic and other researchers, state, public sector and NGO stakeholders and migrant organisations.

    The day will be divided into five thematic workshops:

    • Migration and the labour market
    • Migration, language and education
    • Migration and social policy
    • Migration and community relations
    • Migrant networks

    Among the speakers will be Ean member Caitriona ni Laoire from the Department of Geography, UCC, who will speak on “Irish Return Migration – Complicating Host-Newcomer Dualisms?”. Other speakers include Minister for Integration Conor Lenihan and representatives from ICTU, FAS, IBEC, the Immigrant Council of Ireland, the National Economic and Social Council and academics from a wide range of disciplines.
