The topic is \u2018<strong>Borders in migration research &#8211; far more than territorial borders?\u2019<\/strong>. The temporarily reintroduced border controls, the discussions about the future of the Schengen area and the global rise in nationalism are all evidence of this: Borders are back \u2014 politically, in the media and socially. Borders reveal themselves not only as lines, but also as dynamic and conflictual social practices that regulate mobility and supposedly organise affiliation, inclusion, and exclusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>In geographical migration research, this brings questions of bordering, de-bordering and re-bordering into focus. How, where and by whom are borders drawn, shifted or made permeable? What role do state migration regimes, everyday discrimination and (in)visible exclusion play in these processes? And how can such border formations be researched, analysed and critically questioned?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>When?<\/strong><br><strong>22-23 January 2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Where?<\/strong><br>Universit\u00e9 du Luxembourg, Maison des Sciences Humaines, Black Box<br>11, Porte des Sciences, 4366 Esch-sur-Alzette<br>Luxembourg<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2026 conference will take place in neighbouring Luxembourg, a small yet highly diverse country in the heart of Europe with numerous EU institutions. Nestled between Germany, France and Belgium, Luxembourg is characterised by its border locations and intensive cross-border mobility. With an exceptionally high proportion of people from migrant backgrounds (73.7 % in 2023, STATEC) and a lively multilingualism \u2013 with German, French and Luxembourgish as official languages, supplemented by English and Portuguese as important everyday languages \u2013 the country offers an exciting environment in which to explore issues related to migration and border geography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How to register?<\/strong><br>Registration is mandatory.
