Short description

The project “Innovating to Enhance Dialogues on Migration Policies and Practices - INNOVATE”  - aims to improve the nature, scope, forms and impact of impacts of Migration Research to Policy (MR2P) engagement. To this end, it will develop, test, apply and communicate process innovations for migration and integration management. The development process is closely aligned with the needs and interests of researchers, policy makers and other key stakeholders, including migrants. These stakeholders will be invited to collaborate in an MR2P Collaboratory, consisting of a research exchange, an engagement hub and a training facility. This collaboration centre will have a virtual and a physical presence and is expected to last beyond the project duration.
