Event description

Event Overview

Forced migration is one of today’s most urgent global grand challenges. Supporting refugee livelihoods requires more than good intentions — it calls for finely tuned, evidence-based solutions.

This session explores how engaged, collaborative research can create sustainable pathways to employment and economic inclusion for displaced populations.

Drawing on multi-stakeholder applied research with refugees, employers, community groups, and policymakers, we will showcase how partnerships grounded in real-world practice can deliver:

  • High-impact insights

  • Actionable policy tools

  • Scalable programs for lasting change

Key Topics

  • The challenges and opportunities of refugee employment

  • Building partnerships that drive impact

  • Research dissemination that bridges academia and practice

Through real-world case studies, the session will highlight successes, challenges, and lessons learned, illustrating how engaged research connects academic knowledge with meaningful social impact.
