Presentation
According to United Nations data, there are currently approximately 281 million migrants worldwide. While this constitutes only 3.6% of the global population, with the majority residing in their countries of origin, migration poses various challenges.
The Global Chair in Migration and Human Rights seeks to serve as a hub for research, dialogue, and dissemination on this topic.
The Chair's vision is anchored in the four fundamental pillars guiding Nebrija University's operations: academic excellence, pedagogical innovation, internationalization, and employability.
Through research, education, and the promotion of best practices, the Chair aims not only to deepen the understanding of migration processes but also to actively enhance the living conditions of migrants and their communities, both in their places of origin and destination.
