Call for Special Issue Contributions: Participatory action research in migration studies

The journal Societies (edited by MDPI) is organizing a Special Issue on Participatory Action Research (PAR) in migration studies which is being co-edited by Birte Nienaber, José Oliveira and Isabelle Albert (University of Luxembourg).

The title of the special issue is "Doing and Critically Evaluating Participatory Action Research in Migration Studies". Thus, its broad spectrum encompasses diverse uses of PAR within migration research.

We are welcoming articles from authors around the world that can bring a relevant contribution to this topic.

The deadline for manuscript submissions is the 15th of April 2023.
