As such, it has decided to launch a call for applications for a postdoctoral fellowship on the topic of the prevention and management of natural risks and disasters.

Forced migration and the treatment of refugees and other displaced people currently find themselves at the center of many political, social, and academic debates. Yet forced migration is neither limited to certain regions nor to present-day developments. It is, indeed, a global phenomenon that has shaped humankind since time immemorial.
