Unpacking the Politics of Forced Return: Who Really Chooses to Go Back? In migration policy, we often hear about voluntary return -- but how real is that choice? This free, three-week online course, developed by the University of Glasgow in collaboration with CERC in Migration & Integration at Toronto Metropolitan University, takes a deep dive into the realities of coerced return migration -- where policy, pressure, and power shape migrants’ decisions to return. Through real-world case studies, including perspectives on Syrian migration, you’ll explore: 👉 The hidden mechanisms of return migration policies and their impact on migrants. 👉 The fine line between voluntary and forced returns—and how states blur it. 👉 The contradictions of migration governance and the risks of human rights violations. 👉 Alternative migration frameworks centered on dignity, justice, and sustainability. If you’re interested in migration policy, human rights, or international affairs, this FutureLearn MOOC course will challenge you to rethink return migration and the power dynamics behind it. It is convened by Anna Triandafyllidou and me, as part of the Horizon Europe project GAPs Return Migration. 🔗 Explore the course here: https://lnkd.in/duPjiCjb
