I explore how Nepalis formed their imaginaries of Malta before moving there, and show how these imaginaries help understand their migration aspirations.

In her online talk on Dec 12 at 2 pm CET, @BlondinSuzy will explore the link between environmental conditions and (im)mobility. Based on her field research in Tajikistan, we will learn more about attachment to place, risk perception and adaptive capacity. donau-uni.ac.at/en/universit…

The involuntary immobility-development nexus remains under-studied. Our project, #PATHWAYS, explores the effects of unfulfilled migration aspirations on subjective well-being, life aspirations and forward-looking behavior.

And how do the widespread (changing) migration aspirations among young Nepalis affect their wellbeing, i.e. their happiness, relationships, and material wellbeing – and vice versa? We can imagine plenty of links between migration aspirations and wellbeing. (4/7)

I'm incredibly grateful to all those contributing to and supervising me on this absolute dream project! Especially: @LeaMullerFunk, Mathias Czaika, @bivanderdal, Samiksha Neupane, Jeevan Baniya, @Arjunkharel, Sabina Ertl, and Sofia Gaspar. (7/7)
This morning, I arrived back in one of my favourite parts of the world: Nepal. I'll be based here for the next 5 months for my PhD project DYNAMIGS. In a fantastic team @soscbaha we'll collect interviews & a 2-wave survey with young Nepalis in Kathmandu valley & Gorkha district🧵
We try to understand how their aspirations to migrate change over time & how these changes are linked to their wellbeing. In this process, we also explore what migration aspirations really are, how they connect to wider aspirations, & how we can grasp both better in research(2/7)
