Transnational Societies and Migration

Migration is one of the major societal challenges of our time and is intricately linked to the complex processes of internationalization, globalization, and societal change. Effectively addressing this challenge requires a thorough understanding of the underlying interactions, motivations, and processes.

The University for Continuing Education Krems is committed to tackling this task through transdisciplinary research, contributing valuable insights of high societal relevance. Our research activities focus on analyzing the socio-economic implications of transnational societies and examining migration as a complex and dynamic societal phenomenon. Recognizing migration as an undeniable social reality, our research aims to lay the groundwork for effective migration management while fostering societal acceptance of this phenomenon. This approach emphasizes not only the challenges posed by migration but also the opportunities it presents, striving for a balanced, informed, and evidence-based perspective.
