Migration Summer School: Women in International Migration

The presence of women in migration flows is not a new element, as females have always been an important component of international migration.
“Women in International Migration: Addressing ethnic-racial Discrimination, socioeconomic and health inequalities and Gender-based Violence” has been carefully designed and developed to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of the impact of investigating the impact of women’s migration trajectory, social networks and contextual conditions on their integration or marginalization in host societies. This will be achieved through lectures and discussions led by international scholars, professors, and experts and study visits. This program is organized by the European Public Law Organization (EPLO).
