Currently, I am principle investigator for two research projects as part of EU-wide consortia funded with Horizon 2020 framework. MIGNEX will contribute to more effective and coherent migration management through evidence-based understanding of the linkages between development and migration migration-development nexus.  ADMIGOV exploring different aspects of entry, exit, labour, protection and development policies will advance alternative migration governance.
