Our space provides a forum for aid workers to connect with, support, & learn from one another.
It also provides helpful information, directly from experienced aid workers, for those aspiring to join the aid working world as well as for the families/friends of aid workers who are living in, or who have lived in, deep field locations.
The site has a special focus on trauma, helping aid workers better understand trauma from colleagues who have experienced it firsthand & also providing survivors with an opportunity to connect with each other in a mutually supportive way.

Institut National d'Etudes Demographiques (INED) was founded in 1945, and in 1986 it acquired the status of an Etablissement Public à Caractère Scientifique et Technologique (EPST), meaning that it is under joint administrative supervision of the ministries of research and social affairs. The Institute’s missions are to study the populations of France and other countries, to ensure wide dissemination of the knowledge thereby acquired, and to provide training in research through research. INED’s approach to demography is resolutely open and interdisciplinary, implicating a wide range of disciplines including economics, history, geography, sociology, anthropology, biology and epidemiology. With its 11 research units, the Institute promotes communication and exchange within the scientific community and between researchers and the general public while conducting numerous European and international research projects.

Migration Policy Centre (MPC) conducts advanced policy-oriented research on global migration, asylum and mobility. It serves governance needs at European and global levels, from developing, implementing and monitoring migration-related policies to assessing their impact on the wider economy and society.
Migration links each individual country to the rest of the world in a rapidly evolving scenario. Therefore, the MPC pools worldwide scholars, experts, policymakers and influential thinkers, to identify problems, research their causes and consequences, and devise sound policy solutions on migration and related matters. In doing so, it bridges research with action, providing stakeholders with data, sources, methodologies and results required by evidence-based policy-making.
Research at the MPC is carried out within three main frameworks: observatories, which forge the Centre’s identity, core research areas and projects.
