New Delhi: The Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) and the Union Ministry of Overseas Indian Affairs recently signed an agreement to work collectively on a project titled "International Migration and Diaspora Research" at the Zakir Husain Centre for Educational Studies, at JNU's School of Social Sciences (SSS).
The Research project will be headed by Economics Professor Binod Khadria, a noted scholar in the field of international migration.
An official from the varsity said, "Focusing primarily on the complex links between social, economic, political, cultural and educational aspects of globalisation and migration, the project envisages achieving its goals by conducting collaborative research through workshops, conferences, training modules, publications, hosting scholars and other research activities,".
"In recent decades, India has witnessed tremendous changes in international migratory flows, in scale as well as in diversity, outward as well as inward. The increasing dimension and complexity of the paradigm of globalisation and migration and the significant position that India holds in it, makes the project an important beginning," the official added.
Apart from interfacing with the Ministry, the project also endeavours to visualize international collaboration with globally renowned organisations in the field of international migration.
