Call for volunteers- The Nordic Migration Research Conference, 14-16 August 2024

Are you interested in understanding:

• How the limits on migrants' and refugees’ rights affect their social lives, future imaginaries, and their sense of mobility?
• How migrants and minorities mobilize against precarious living conditions and various forms of racial and material injustice?
• The strategies differently situated migrants, including refugees, develop to overcome the uncertainty related to being ‘on the move’ and in an in-between space, plus many more interesting themes...

If yes, we would love for you to join us at the Nordic Migration Research Conference as a volunteer between 14-16 August 2024 at the Grand Hotel Terminus-Bergen. 

Volunteers will have free access to the conference, including:

• Keynote speeches
• All workshop sessions
• Reception hosted by Bergen Kommune at Håkonshallen!
• Conference dinner

In addition to the valuable technical experience and networks gained during the conference, you will receive a recommendation letter from the NMR organizing committee. 

We specifically need your assistance in:

• Setting up the venue and arranging event props
• Registering conference participants
• Distributing conference materials
• Answering queries about schedules, locations, and sessions
• Assisting panel chairs with set-up and audio-visual arrangements in collaboration with venue hosts
• Coordinating meals and breaks

Ideally, you should be available for an average of 7 hours across the three days of the conference.
