Gender and Migration

Gender and Migration refers to the study of how gender identities and roles intersect with the experience of migration. It examines how factors such as gender norms, inequalities, and cultural expectations influence the ways in which individuals migrate, settle in new countries, and navigate the challenges and opportunities presented by the migration process. This field of study also explores how migration can impact gender relations, power dynamics, and social structures within both sending and receiving communities. Gender and Migration research seeks to shed light on the diverse experiences of migrants based on their gender, and to inform policies and interventions that promote gender equality and social justice in the context of migration.
