Dear Highly Skilled Migrants Research Network members,
I apologize for the long silence! My university moved our email group to another platform
which caused a loss of all data and a long period of inactivity. The group is now
reestablished and I hope it will function fine again. I am pleased to continue moderating
it on behalf of Malmö Institute for Studies in Migration, Diversity and
Welfare<https://mau.se/forskning/forskningsmiljoer/forskningscentrum/malmo-institute-for-studies-of-migration-diversity-and-welfare/>
(MIM) at Malmö University.
We welcome a new member, Carolina Triana Cuellar (Doctoral Researcher, School of Global
Studies University of Sussex,
C.Triana-Cuellar@sussex.ac.uk<mailto:C.Triana-Cuellar@sussex.ac.uk>), who is
researching the experiences of immigrant artists working in London's theatre field,
with a focus on their responses to exclusion in their creative practice and working lives.
