YouTube Channel from Melissa Siegel

Prof. Melissa Siegel launched her YouTube channel in an effort to prioritise research communication on migration. The channel provides videos on core migration topics such as remittances and migration corridors as well as country case studies, in a way that is accessible to non-experts. Videos include country case studies on Egypt and Malaysia, a discussion of the link between migration and corruption, and an introduction of the Atlas of Migration developed by the European Commission’s Knowledge Center on Migration and Demography.
