The June 4 conference, to be held at the Wilson Center, will bring together leading specialists from Africa, Europe, and Central and North America to discuss how new migrant communities are transforming cities around the world. The Kennan Institute will also share its most recent research on Moscow and Kyiv as major migrant recipient centers.

Several recent CUSP programs have examined the dynamic relationship between migration and urbanization, exploring how migrants are shaping the cities where they live and in turn, how urban life is transforming migrant groups. The conference will use a comparative research approach to further the current understanding of migration and explore strategies to better integrate migrant communities.
