Building a UK-Brazil research partnership on migration

On 21 November 2017, Professor Michael Keith and Dr Andreza de Souza Santos travelled to Brasilia, Brazil where they held meetings with the Migration Observatory at the University of Brasilia to discuss an upcoming project which will connect researchers looking at migration issues both in Brazil and the UK (more details on the development of this collaboration will follow soon).

Professor Michael Keith also delivered a lecture on migration during the launch of the “Cátedra Sérgio Vieira de Mello”, to increase research on refugees. The University of Brasilia published a report highlighting Keith’s lecture on the ethics of hospitality. More can be found here (in Portuguese only): http://noticias.unb.br/publicacoes/76-institucional/1943-unb-assina-acordo-de-cooperacao-com-as-nacoes-unidas
