This research project has among its outputs:

• A series of ten published Policy Reports addressing the development of the concept of Intercultural Dialogue and its consequences both in the field of practice and in the scientific debate (http://gcm.unu.edu/index.php/publications/policy-reports/136-policy-briefs);
• A Dialogue on Migration, Media and Intercultural Dialogue. A short film was made, arising from a dialogue between Yolanda Onghena, Senior Researcher at CIDOB (a Spanish political think tank) and Enrique Santamaría, Professor of Sociology at UAB (the Autonomous University of Barcelona). This considers questions around globalization, culture and mobility, cultural difference, the role of mainstream and new media in the construction of discourses on migration and cultural dynamics. The film can be watched, in Spanish with English subtitles here: http://gcm.unu.edu/index.php/events/dialogues
• A Dialogue with Professor David Abulafia on Migration and Intercultural Dialogue in the Mediterranean. This will soon be available here: http://gcm.unu.edu/index.php/events/dialogues.
• An Open Forum entitled “Buscando Respeto: learning from immigrant youth gang-members”, in which academics, youth justice officials, prison officers, and others with personal experience of youth gang-membership join the staff of UNU – GCM to explore notions of gang-membership in Barcelona and Madrid. This was a public event, and a short description is available at: http://gcm.unu.edu/index.php/events/open-forums/166-buscando-respeto-learning-from-immigrant-youth-gang-members
• A Conference on “Migration, Media and Intercultural Dialogue”, at which a diverse range of scholars present and debate their ongoing work in the area. The conference proposes an examination of how new, as well as older, forms of media affect experiences of migration. It also critiques the notion of multiculturalism in its application to migration and to various forms of intercultural dialogue and examines the effects of societal pressures on intercultural dialogue. Information about the conference, including the conference programme, is available at: http://gcm.unu.edu/index.php/events/conference/204-migration-media-and-intercultural-dialogue-conference
