In today's first session slot of #IMISCOE2025, I have the pleasure to chair @methatmig.bsky.social's workshop "Strategies and Practical Tools for Publishing Methods Papers" jointly organized with Ros Cameron (Torrens University). I'm very much looking forward to this. See you there!

🚨 Struggling to publish methods papers in migration research?
