So it is that the Home Office has published an ethical decision-making model . The document is intended to help staff grappling with difficult moral choices in the course of their work.  This was one of the recommendations of the Wendy Williams Review into the Windrush scandal, following which Priti Patel promised a kinder, gentler Home Office. Recommendation 17 of the Williams report was: The Home Office should develop a set of ethical standards and an ethical decision-making model, built on the Civil Service Code and principles of fairness, rigour and humanity, that BICS [Borders, Immigration and Citizensh...

Migration is high on the political agenda. It is important for the regional economy and society as a whole. Migrants need housing the moment they arrive in the Netherlands. This has become an increasingly urgent issue, partly due to increasing regional housing market shortages. As an employee at the Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency in The Hague, you contribute to research into the way in which various migrant groups operate and move within the housing market. You will work together with colleagues from the Department of Human Geography, Planning and International Development Studies (GPIO) at the University of Amsterdam (UvA); your research is explicitly intended to culminate in a PhD degree. The PBL Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency wants to contribute to a better understanding of the positive and negative effects of migration and the consequences for the housing market. They do so by means of analyses, policy evaluations, foresight studie...

I was never a Bush fan but what a great way to give migration a face and criticize current leadership's vision on migration (more or less "if you cannot bed them and marry them you just turn them away at the border"). "Bush has criticized the state of modern immigration discourse. In 2018, on the day after the Trump administration issued guidance for asylum seekers at the border that threatened thousands of individuals with being turned away before they could plead their cases in court, Bush said he was "disturbed" by the immigration debate taking place in the United States. Bush has also praised the nation's immigrant history as "a blessing" while calling for comprehensive reform."

by Ruth Webber Tuesday 25 June 2019, 11:00 - 13:30 Ruth Webber’s PhD research explored the meaning and importance of ‘home’ to migrants, refugees and asylum seekers living in Glasgow, with a particular focus on the impact of hostile environment policies and legal status. This workshop presents findings from her research and will foster a reflective space, asking: “What are the barriers faced by cultural institutions to supporting the participation of those living under the hostile environment, and what can cultural institutions do to develop their inclusive practices in this field?”.

I’ve seen the dangerous route to Europe through Libya, with thousands of people at the mercy of cruelty for profit. But our leaders prefer to keep them there ‘We have a heightened responsibility towards Libya because of the role Britain played in bringing down the Gaddafi dictatorship.’ Photograph: Dave Williams/Sound Ltd It’s a mass grave that we don’t need the United Nations to verify. Every day an average of 14 migrants, the vast majority from countries in sub-Saharan Africa, die crossing the Mediterranean. Many more see their European dream turn into a nightmare long before they’re corralled on to flimsy rubber dinghies on Libya’s beaches. They’re the victims of a silent massacre in the Sahara desert – a journey more deadly than the crossing from the coast, according to the International Organisation for Migration Come the spring, thousands of migrants and refugees fleeing poverty and violence will die in Libya, but I doubt you’ll hear much about...
