Comparative longitudinal research on migration has the potential to identify and answer key questions around migrant selection, integration and reception not possible with single country or cross-sectional studies. Yet despite this enormous potential, longitudinal comparative migration research faces challenges of appropriate data, harmonisation of concepts and measures and achieving high levels of multi-country expertise.
This workshop is intended as a practical step towards addressing these challenges and to advancing comparative longitudinal research on migration focusing on the ethnic minority, migrant and refugee boost samples in Understanding Society and the German Sociology-Economic Panel (SOEP).
