Gerda Henkel Grants: Special Programme Forced Migration
Forced migration and the treatment of refugees and other displaced people are currently at the center of many political, social, and academic debates.

Violence, conflict, persecution, discrimination, poverty, as well as changes in climate and environment can prompt people to leave their places of origin.
