项目摘要

More than 1 billion people are estimated to be migrants, living either inside or outside their country of birth. Migration challenges currently feature centrally in electoral politics in the UK, and indeed across Europe and North America. They underlie considerations about foreign policy, national and international security, and international humanitarian and development aid. Understanding the drivers, dynamics and impacts of migration in the contemporary world requires a broad-based and interdisciplinary approach which is cognizant of the increasingly complex and multi-scalar drivers and experiences of migration. Despite this, migration studies has suffered from a prolonged Balkanisation with academic and policy makers largely failing to step across disciplinary, theoretical, methodological and geographical divides to learn from one another (Hathaway 2007; Faist 2011, Perez 2017). There is also a lack of systematic understanding of the ways in which research can effectively be linked to, inform, and influence policy and practice to bring about positive results that could help facilitate safe and constructive decisions about migration, inform more positive experiences of movement, and lead to the creation of viable alternatives for those who would prefer not to move. Researchers and practitioners face challenges in developing research tools and policy instruments that reflect a field in which the central features (economic and political dynamics, migratory routes, costs of travel, policy and legal environments in transit and destination areas) are all constantly shifting. There is also a need to take stock of the tools for achieving impact that have been shown to be effective and to identify new ways of generating impact through closer collaboration and communication between researchers, policy-makers and practitioners. This project will use an inclusive, consultative approach to assessing the scope, achievements and challenges of the existing portfolio of ESRC and AHRC funded research to identify strategic opportunities and priorities for further research and to highlight best practice in the area of impact. Drawing on the extensive interdisciplinary expertise of scholars within the London International Development Centre, the Migration Leadership Team will engage in a series of workshops, one-on-one interviews, and panel discussions with researchers, policy-makers, practitioners, migrants associations and arts organisations to identify areas of research to prioritise, pathways to impact that have been, or are likely to be, promising, and platforms for communication and collaboration that are likely to help bridge research, policy, and public engagement. We have identified a series of key themes that we will include in our enquiry: 1) How can migration studies and refugee studies more effectively benefit from the theoretical, methodological, and empirical contributions that each is making? 2) How can research and policy better respond to the continued movement of people into and across the European Union, and between Europe and the UK? 3) How can research be used to better understand political and economic crises in countries and regions of origin and how can this research inform policy and practice? 4) What does emerging evidence tell us about the effectiveness of migration management and development policy which increasingly focuses on regions of origin? 5) What improvements and methodological innovations can be made in the collection and compiling of data about migration trends and demographics to improve the quality of information that drives migration and development policy? Our main output will be a recommended strategy for the ESRC and AHRC for supporting migration research, supplemented by a scoping study on existing research, an interactive decision support tool, 8 policy briefs and 2 journal articles on our methodological approach. We will use visual tools (e.g. comics) to enhance impact.

据估计，有10亿多人是移徙者，生活在出生国境内或境外。移民挑战目前在英国的选举政治中处于中心地位，实际上在整个欧洲和北美都是如此。它们构成了对外交政策、国家和国际安全以及国际人道主义和发展援助的考虑的基础。要了解当今世界移徙的驱动因素、动态和影响，就需要采取基础广泛的跨学科办法，认识到移徙的驱动因素和经历日益复杂和多层次。尽管如此，移民研究长期以来一直受到学术和政策制定者的困扰，他们在很大程度上未能跨越学科，理论，方法和地理鸿沟，相互学习（海瑟薇2007; Faist 2011，Perez 2017）。对于研究如何能够有效地与政策和做法联系起来，为政策和做法提供信息，并对政策和做法产生影响，以产生积极的结果，从而有助于促进安全和建设性的移徙决定，为更积极的移徙经验提供信息，并为那些不愿移徙的人创造可行的替代办法，也缺乏系统的了解。研究人员和从业人员在开发研究工具和政策文书方面面临挑战，这些工具和文书反映了一个中心特征（经济和政治动态、移徙路线、旅行费用、过境和目的地地区的政策和法律的环境）都在不断变化的领域。还需要评估已证明有效的产生影响的工具，并通过研究人员、决策者和从业人员之间更密切的合作和沟通，确定产生影响的新方法。该项目将采用一种包容性、协商性的方法，评估ESRC和AHRC资助的研究的现有组合的范围、成就和挑战，以确定进一步研究的战略机会和优先事项，并突出影响领域的最佳做法。借鉴伦敦国际发展中心学者广泛的跨学科专业知识，移民领导团队将参加一系列研讨会，一对一访谈，并与研究人员，政策制定者，从业人员，移民协会和艺术组织进行小组讨论，以确定研究领域的优先事项，影响已经或可能是有前途的途径，以及沟通和协作的平台，这些平台可能有助于连接研究、政策和公众参与。我们已经确定了一系列的关键主题，我们将包括在我们的调查：1）移民研究和难民研究如何更有效地受益于理论，方法和经验的贡献，每个正在作出？2)研究和政策如何更好地应对不断涌入欧盟和跨越欧盟以及欧洲与英国之间的人口流动？3)如何利用研究来更好地了解起源国和区域的政治和经济危机，以及这项研究如何为政策和实践提供信息？4)新出现的证据如何告诉我们，越来越注重原籍地区的移徙管理和发展政策的有效性？5)在收集和汇编有关移徙趋势和人口统计数据方面可以作出哪些改进和方法创新，以提高推动移徙与发展政策的信息质量？我们的主要产出将是为ESRC和AHRC推荐的支持移民研究的战略，并辅以对现有研究的范围研究，互动决策支持工具，8个政策简报和2篇关于我们方法的期刊文章。我们将使用视觉工具（例如漫画）来增强影响力。
