Migration Studies and Migration to African Cities

In this Imiscoe Podcast episode, Silindile Mlilo, project manager of Xenowatch, interviews Loren Landau about his latest research on African cities. Loren talks about how patterns of migration to cities in Africa are distinct from urbanization in other parts of the world. Loren has been researching space regulation and how migrants interact with cities, as well as ethical issues of inclusion and visibility. Loren also talks about how he sees the current state of migration studies and the importance of keeping space for research that shifts perspectives away from donor priorities.
