De-centring the Study of Migrant Returns and Readmission Policies in Europe and Beyond (GAPs) // March 2023-February 2026
GAPs will explore the disconnects between expectations of return policies and their actual outcomes by decentering the dominant, one-sided understanding of "return policy making" by examining return infrastructures, migration diplomacy and migration trajectories with a focus on 13 countries in Europe, Africa and the broader Middle East. // Coordinators: Soner Bartholoma (Uppsala University) and Zeynep Mencütek (Bonn International Centre for Conflict Studies)
Motivations, experiences and consequences of returns and readmissions policy: revealing and developing effective alternatives (MORE) // October 2023-September 2026

It explores perceptions of return and readmission policies amongst stakeholders as well as their consequences, explores alternative solutions and examines why certain ‘solutions’ are preferred over others. // Coordinator: Olga Jubany (University of Barcelona, Spain)
Protecting Irregular Migrants in Europe (PRIME): Institutions, Interests and Policies // April 2023-March 2026
