Abstract
Description
Futures of Mobility network at the Centre for Inter-Asian Research, Ahmedabad University organised a two-day workshop. This workshop explored contexts in Asia where higher education and migration collapse into each other. It aims to curate a comparative perspective on educational mobility in the region. Panelists considered the mobility desires, migration infrastructures, and conflictual becomings that situate and animate youth and their families. How do gendered people embedded in allegedly “traditional” family and community ties make and unmake themselves, places, “others”, and the relationships between these? How are educational mobilities emergent in contemporary political-economic formations similar to and different from earlier flows and frictions, and what are the implications for the region?
