Description

Social Belonging and Cohesion in Multicultural Schools and Societies

We know from various literatures that strong and positive connections to people and places are important for both those with migrant and non-migrant background. We will highlight how social belonging and cohesion can be promoted to support positive academic and socioemotional development in diverse classrooms.

The aim of our conference is to advance state-of-the-art research focusing on how cultural diversity and issues related to migration contribute to children’s educational experiences and adjustment.

By bringing together speakers and presenters from various disciplines, backgrounds, and countries who use both quantitative and qualitative methodologies and include diverse samples, we provide a unique and stimulating forum to inform and inspire new ideas and collaborations that will advance the field of migration and education further.
