Have you read our latest BIRMM newsletter?
This new edition brings together a wide range of stories, research insights, and reflections from across the BIRMM community, highlighting how academic work connects to pressing societal debates.
In this issue, we revisit the launch of A New Wave of Anti-Racism in Europe?, with an aftermovie capturing key reflections from contributors on why anti-racism research matters beyond academia. Marking the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, we also feature a series of op-eds exploring structural racism—from its impact on healthy ageing to critical discussions on migration policy, gender, and pseudoscience in public debate.
The newsletter further showcases new research and policy-oriented work, including a policy brief on housing and migrant integration in Flanders, and studies on topics such as religion in Belgian prisons, diversity within the police, and the realities of migration return policies. Alongside these insights, you’ll find updates on upcoming events, seminars, and public discussions that continue to foster dialogue between research, policy, and society.
