Why has migration research so little impact?

On 4 June I present my paper with @nwelfens.bsky.social on the impact of migration research at the Austrian Academy of Sciences. @judithkohlenberger.bsky.social will act as discussant!

There will be lots of room for discussion, so please join!
The event is hybrid.
