Migration Conversations is a podcast that invites persons to share their migration stories. Hosted by Professor Jamie Liew, each episode is an in-depth conversation with people who have experienced the Canadian immigration system or other migration regimes up close. We talk to migrants, immigrants, lawyers, policy makers, advocates and experts. We hope that these conversations shed light on the challenges migrants face through their own voices. Please note this podcast is not legal advice.
Guests on this podcast will get to share their real-life experiences about living in a different country.
So what does moving from one country to the other, look like for an African immigrant? What are some of the life stressors that come with the journey of migration? And how do people cope during those tough times? We will get to hear how immigrants have built resiliency through the journey of migration.
La Organización Internacional para Migraciones - OIM presenta En Movimiento: un podcast para mover ideas sobre migración.
More than 35,000 adult adoptees in the United States spent their entire lives completely unaware that they lacked citizenship and faced deportation. Their stories deserve to be heard - in their own words. Their stories deserve to be UnErased.
Humanizando la Deportación es un proyecto comunitario en narrativa digital que documenta las consecuencias de la deportación masiva. Desde principios de 2017, con fondos de varias becas, y contribuciones institucionales de UC Davis y las cuatro universidades mexicanas con las que colaboramos, nuestros equipos en seis ciudades mexicanas y en California han ofrecido una
plataforma para que lxs migrantes compartan sus experiencias personales sobre la deportación en nuestra página web de acceso abierto y bilingüe. Lxs narradorxs comunitarixs trabajan con nuestros equipos académicos para producir narrativas digitales (cortometrajes testimoniales) enfocados en los asuntos que a aquéllxs les parecen importantes visibilizar sobre el fenómeno
actual de la deportación (tales como la separación familiar, las irregularidades procesales, problemas de adaptación para migrantes llegadxs en la infancia, entre otros). El archivo demuestra una formidable amplitud de perspectivas al incorporar un panorama de perfiles de personas afectadas directamente por la deportación, y una diversidad de consecuencias del
desplazamiento forzoso. Nuestro archivo actualmente comprende más de 300 narrativas digitales de unas 250 diferentes narradorxs comunitarixs. Es el archivo cualitativo más grande del mundo sobre la deportación.
Over 2,500 databases on the diverse and complex topic of migration.
An international consortium of more than 750 academic institutions and research organizations, Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR) provides leadership and training in data access, curation, and methods of analysis for the social science research community.
ICPSR maintains a data archive of more than 250,000 files of research in the social and behavioral sciences. It hosts 21 specialized collections of data in education, aging, criminal justice, substance abuse, terrorism, and other fields.
ICPSR collaborates with a number of funders, including U.S. statistical agencies and foundations, to create thematic data collections and data stewardship and research projects.
ICPSR's educational activities include the Summer Program in Quantitative Methods of Social Research, a comprehensive curriculum of intensive courses in research design, statistics, data analysis, and social methodology. ICPSR also leads several initiatives that encourage use of data in teaching, particularly in undergraduate instruction.
ICPSR-sponsored research focuses on the emerging challenges of digital curation and data science. ICPSR leads or takes part in many policy initiatives and grant-funded activities that result in publications that address issues related to data stewardship. ICPSR researchers also examine substantive issues related to our collections, with an emphasis on historical demography and the environment.
ICPSR is a unit within the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan and maintains its office in Ann Arbor.

The Mexican Migration Project (MMP) was created in 1982 by an interdisciplinary team of researchers to further our understanding of the complex process of Mexican migration to the United States. The project is a binational research effort co-directed by Jorge Durand, professor of Social Anthropology at the University of Guadalajara (Mexico), and Douglas S. Massey, professor of Sociology and Public Affairs, with a joint appointment in the Woodrow Wilson School, at Princeton University (US).
Since its inception, the MMP's main focus has been to gather social as well as economic information on Mexican-US migration. The data collected has been compiled in a comprehensive database that is available to the public free of charge for research and educational purposes through this web-site.
The MMP is a unique source of data that enables researchers to track patterns and processes of contemporary Mexican immigration to the United States. The project is a multi-disciplinary research effort that generates public use data on the characteristics and behavior of Mexican migrants.
Since the passage of the Homeland Security Act of 2002, the Office of Immigration Statistics has responsibility to carry out two statutory requirements: 1) to collect and disseminate to Congress and the public data and information useful in evaluating the social, economic, environmental, and demographic impact of immigration laws; and 2) to establish standards of reliability and validity for immigration statistics collected by the Department’s operational Components.
The Project Transnational Identities and behavior: an Ethnographic Comparison of First and Second Generation Latino Immigrants was realized under the direction of Douglas Massey and Magaly Sanchez R with funding from the Russell Sage Foundation (May 2002). The study, known in abbreviated form as the Immigrant Identity Project, was organized as a sub-project of two larger investigations: the Mexican Migration Project and the Latin American Migration Project. The project sought to conduct in-depth interviews with immigrants residing in the northeastern United States , and was originally conceived to analyze whether the construction of immigrant identity conformed to the postulates of classic assimilation theory, segmented assimilation theory, or transnational theory, and to assess whether intergroup boundaries were being blurred or brightened.
This project serves as a centralized place where journalism students learn basics of data journalism, from locating data sources and understanding data to visualizing and
displaying data. Students in journalism programs nationwide and journalist practitioners can use this resource to get started with data journalism, or sharpen their knowledge of data journalism. In the long run, this resource will prepare next-generation journalists, equipping them with the ability to analyze complex data, tell powerful stories, and
effectively communicate these stories to various audiences.

The nonpartisan Migration Policy Institute seeks to improve immigration and integration policies through authoritative research and analysis, opportunities for learning and dialogue, and the development of new ideas to address complex policy questions. Founded in 2001, MPI is headquartered in Washington, DC. In 2011, MPI established the Migration Policy Institute Europe, a nonprofit, independent research institute based in Brussels that builds upon the work that MPI has done for years in Europe.
MPI provides analysis, development, and evaluation of migration and refugee policies at local, national, and international levels. It aims to meet the rising demand for pragmatic and thoughtful responses to the challenges and opportunities that large-scale migration, whether voluntary or forced, presents to communities and institutions in an increasingly integrated world.

PERLA - Princeton University
The Project on Ethnicity and Race in Latin America
Proyecto sobre Ethnicidad y Raza en America Latina
Projeto sobre Etnicidade e Raça na América Latina
In 2008, the Project on Ethnicity and Race in Latin America (PERLA) was formed in an effort to collect and analyze survey data to explore a wide range of ethnoracial issues in the region, providing much-needed data on ethnoracial conditions in the region. By designing nationally representative surveys on a broad range of ethnoracial issues, PERLA has gone well beyond the one or two ethnoracial classification questions found in national censuses and other official surveys. The PERLA surveys consisted or an ethnicity module included in the 2010 America’s Barometer as well as in-depth ethnicity and race surveys in four countries: Brazil, Colombia, Mexico and Peru. The PERLA surveys include several ethnoracial classification and inequality items, questions on perceived discrimination, and public opinion questions about ethnoracial minorities, social policies, and social movements,. Our analyses of these surveys provides new truths based on solid data for a region that has long been in denial about deep-seated ethnoracial inequalities, injustices, and prejudiced attitudes, not to mention the need for policies that seek to redress them.

The Center for Migration Studies of New York (CMS) is a think tank and an educational institute devoted to the study of international migration, to the promotion of understanding between immigrants and receiving communities, and to public policies that safeguard the dignity and rights of migrants, refugees and newcomers. CMS was established in 1964 and formally incorporated in 1969 by the Congregation of the Missionaries of St. Charles, Scalabrinians, a community of Catholic priests, nuns and lay people dedicated to serving migrants and refugees throughout the world. CMS is a member of the Scalabrini International Migration Network (SIMN), a global network of migrant shelters, service centers and other institutions along migrant corridors and in border and destination communities, and the Scalabrini Migration Study Centers, a network of think-tanks on international migration and refugee protection.
CMS operates as a legally distinct, tax-exempt agency, with an independent board of trustees. It carries out its mission in five principal ways:
Publication of journals (including the International Migration Review and the Journal on Migration and Human Security), essays, conference proceedings and other papers.
Sponsorship of conferences, meetings, briefings, symposia and dialogues.
Production of evidence-based, policy-relevant research.
Provision of expert support to faith-based institutions.
