Next Migration, Multiculturalism and Nation Cluster Meeting - 17 August
The next migration cluster meeting will be held on 17th August 2010, 1-2pm, in C5C room 303.
The speaker is Max Tani, FBE Economics, who will talk about "international labour mobility and knowledge exchanges: is it better to visit or be visited?"
As usual, the presentation will take 10-15 minutes, followed by Q&A.
We will also discuss the proposed Skilled Labour Group/CRSI workshop (above) and schedule the cluster meetings for September, October, and November. We'll also be calling for volunteers to present their work. PhD students are encouraged.
