 The Thirteenth Edition of the International Conference Migration Dynamics and New Trends in European (In)Security, will cover two separate, but interconnected topics:  on one hand, the migration issues, involving topics related to societal security, identity(ies), minority issues, migration and refugees and on the other hand security studies.

Panel 1. Intelligence, Organizations and European Governance for sustainable migration policies; This panel is designed to address the main issues and challenges related to international security and it integrates specific approaches of governance and intelligence.

Panel 2. Migration, Human Rights and (In)Security Nexus: Instruments and Actions; The securitization/ (de)securitization of migration is nothing new, but in the new international context, these issues became a priority.

Panel 3. Minorities and Refugees – Economic, Societal and Social Challenges; This panel focuses on the geopolitics of minorities, the challenges posed by a large number of refugees in Europe and the failure of multiculturalism in different EU member states.
