Research objectives
MobileWelfare will generate insights into the role that welfare systems in destination and origin countries play in the formation of migration aspirations and decisions and will bring to public knowledge new avenues for understanding the link between migration and welfare. This research will also help academics and policy makers in understanding the ways in which and under which circumstances migration may (or may not) challenge welfare systems in Europe. Finally it will also provide insights into potential sources of growing inequality between mobile and non‐mobile European populations in terms of access to welfare.
