Collaboration and Societal Engagement

An important part of CGM’s mission is to create meaningful opportunities for knowledge exchange between academia and society. We do this through a wide range of activities, events and partnerships – designed to bridge research and practice.

Collaboration activities

To foster dialogue and co-creation, CGM organises and co-hosts a variety of formats, including seminars, workshops, conferences and public events. These meeting spaces bring together researchers, policy-makers, practitioners and civil society actors to engage with current issues related to migration and integration.

Partnerships

Active collaboration with society is a key priority for CGM. We work with several organisations and institutions across Gothenburg and the Västra Götaland region, building long-term partnerships that contribute to mutual learning and relevance.

Expert list

The University of Gothenburg offers an expert list featuring scholars who can comment on current topics related to migration, integration, and related societal challenges. The aim is to strengthen communication and promote knowledge exchange between academia and society.

Make Your Own Passport network

Since 2018, CGM has been involved in the collaborative art project "Make Your Own Passport" by artist Dr. Tintin Wulia. Through workshops in public spaces, the project encourages lifelong learning and public engagement with the concept of citizenship. It also serves as a creative meeting point between research, art and society.

Deakin Center for Refugee Employment

Together with the research program Organizing Integration (OI) at the University of Gothenburg, CGM has a collaboration with the Deakin Center for Refugee Employment, Advocacy, Training and Education (CREATE).
