Fulbright Specialist Project approved

The Policies, Law and Services for Migrants project, submitted to the Fulbright Specialist programme, has been approved. The specialist, Sharvari Karandikar, a professor at the College of Social Work at the Ohio State University (US) will collaborate with the UCILeR for 16 days starting in October, organising workshops on the theme of migration and designing a research project focusing on the refugee and migrant population in Portugal. The Fulbright specialist will be accompanied by our researchers Ana Margarida Gaudêncio and Marta Graça.

The Fulbright Specialists Programme allows US specialists (professors, researchers and professionals) to carry out short-term teaching, consultancy and research projects in Portuguese institutions (educational, governmental, non-governmental, cultural, medical and research centres).
