Rapidly increasing international migrations have radically changed the outlook of contemporary 21st-century societies, producing cases of massive displaced and precarious lives and bring various impacts upon local communities. After a year of knowledge sharing and exchanges, this GHI online summer institute invites early career researchers, advanced graduate students, and senior scholars from the interdisciplinary humanities and social science studies to share their researches on contemporary critical and urgent issues. Through the analysis of governmental policies, social inequity, community initiatives, documentaries, films, literature, archives, and cooperation with NGOs and artist groups, this intensive program offers analytical theorization foregrounds the subjective experiences and perspectives of migrants, proposes visions for the migrants’ human rights, as well as critiques the governments malfunctioning in dealing with these migrants.
