We also welcome scholars, at all career stages, interested in writing for the Cemore website, either on a one-off basis, or repeatedly. This could include, for instance, pieces on ongoing mobilities-related research, comment pieces, event reports, news about events that might be of interest to mobilities researchers. We love receiving new posts and hearing from new voices as this reflects the wonderful diversity of the field of mobilities. Please email cemore@lancaster.ac.uk with your proposal or for more queries and information.
