Building on inter-disciplinary expertise and interest in migration across the University of Leeds, LMRN is responding to the widespread interest in migration in the region and beyond, including government, business, and civil society groups. LMRN develops and promotes research around migration, and also deepens links with external organisations by acting as a contact point and source of expertise, and through the development of bottom-up collaborative engagement.
