Call for Contributions | CeMIS Migration and Intercultural Studies

Co-creation in migration research and policy making


Editor-in-chief: Lore Van Praag

The aim of this book is to contribute to debates on the ways in which innovative strategies to address migrant-related challenges, in particular co-creative methods, may advance migrant integration. More specifically, in this book, we aim to gather contributions that investigate how these co-creative research strategies may provide insights into how these integration processes into various domains of the immigrant society (e.g., language learning, housing, employment) are shaped, and how they can contribute to policy making and new policy practices. This book intends to provide an overview in which the use of such co-creative methodologies in migration studies is critically assessed. This book will first offer a theoretical framework outlining the existing co-creative methodologies used in academic research in general, and migration studies in particular. The chapters in this opening section should discuss particular methods and theoretical approaches to co-creative methodologies and citizen science. In the second, empirical part, ongoing research experiences to incorporate co-creative methodologies and citizen science in academic research are documented and critically assessed. The third, likewise empirical part, reflects upon how co-creative research methods and citizen science have actually contributed to the creation of migrant integration policies and discuss their added value. The concluding chapter offers an overall analysis of the use of co-creative research methodologies in migrant research and policy making and a reflection upon the conditions to successfully implement and conduct co-creative research in migrant research and policy making.
