Our Mission
Challenging Dominant Narratives
BORDERSCAPE is an interdisciplinary platform that brings together scholars, researchers, activists and practitioners working on land issues, migration and multiculturality. We discuss comparative public policies and cultural relations through an anti-colonial lens.
We challenge dominant narratives and create spaces for decolonial dialogue and transformative action in migration studies. Our goal is to develop a space where young researchers, scholars, activists, and policy makers can debate topics on migrations and intercultural relations from an emancipatory and anti-colonial perspective.

Knowledge Production
Collective Works
Our Knowledge Production section publishes collective works that challenge traditional academic paradigms. We foster collaborative research that centers marginalized voices and challenges colonial frameworks in migration and cultural studies.
From edited volumes to special journal issues, our publications bring together emerging and established scholars to reimagine migration research through decolonial and intersectional approaches.
