Conference Report- Focus on children in migration from a European research and method perspective

In March 2007 a two-day conference “Focus on Children in Migration – From a European Research and Method Perspective” was held in Warsaw. The conference, as well as a joint UNHCR – NGO Network meeting on the same topic, was organized by Save the Children Sweden, Separated Children in Europe Network and the European Network of Masters in Children’s Rights. The main objective of these two events was to provide, at the level of representatives of NGOs, European Regional Bodies and Academics, an important space for discussions on the latest research findings concerning children in migration. This report is based on the contributions from the speakers at the Conference and anticipates continued debates among NGOs and academic researchers to stimulate new and groundbreaking research on the issue of children in migration.
