Abstract

This thematic paper is a contribution to our understanding of ways in which universities within the Global South can and do engage with the challenge of internal and external migration. Migration is one of the most significant global challenges. According to the United Nations International Migration Report (2017), the number of international migrants worldwide has increased significantly from 173 million in 2000 to 258 million in 2017. In 2017, over 78 million international migrants lived in Europe, 80 million lived in Asia, and 25 million lived in Africa. Despite these patterns of migration, a Western-centric perspective dominates the literature and research with the focus being on Global South to Global North migration (i.e. migration to Europe or North America) or exclusively migration within the Global North. Less is known about Global South-Global South migration.
