A few weeks ago I tweeted a list of migration historians who are on Twitter. Based on the feedback I received I thought it would be a good idea to publish an expanded set of lists. Below are lists of
- migration historians
- other migration scholars/researchers/lawyers/policy analysts
- activists, allies, and advocacy groups/organizations
- migration journalists/writers/photographers/publications
- academic groups/centers/institutes and policy/research organizations whose work focuses on migration
- migration blogs/bloggers
I am sure I have unintentionally forgotten many people, groups, and organizations, but I plan on updating the list periodically, so please tweet at me or email me if you would like to be added, or know someone who would. (Also, let me know if, for whatever reason, you would like to be removed.) You can follow these lists on Twitter or check this page for the most up-to-date information.
