Just wrapped up an inspiring workshop on “Causes and Consequences of Spatial Mobility Over the Life Course”!
Great presentations and discussions on geographic mobility in childhood and adulthood across Europe.
Thanks to everyone who made it such a success! See you next time!

Comparative Population Studies welcomes submissions to the 2026 special issue Migration Trajectories Across the Life Course, guest edited by Sergi Vidal (Autonomous University of Barcelona), Aude Bernard (University of Queensland), and Riccardo Valente (Autonomous University of Barcelona). The proposed special issue aims to leverage a trajectory-based approach that fully accounts for the multi-dimensional nature of migration across time and space, providing deeper insights into diverse migration trajectory patterns and their long-term individual and societal implications.
