Migration is a worldwide phenomenon that has evolved into a significant academic discipline, encompassing teaching and research efforts globally.
The Migration Textbook, published by the EU-funded and ICMPD-implemented “Support to the Implementation of the Mobility Partnership with Azerbaijan (MOBILAZE 2)” project, provides a comprehensive overview of the migration field, exploring its historical roots, current trends, and future prospects. The Textbook covers a wide range of topics related to migration, including theories, governance, migration management in Azerbaijan, integration, and security.
Aimed at migration practitioners, government authorities, academics, researchers, and postgraduate students in Azerbaijan, the textbook is a collaborative effort by Azerbaijani and international scholars and migration experts, including representatives from the State Migration Service of Azerbaijan and ICMPD.
