About DiaMiGo ||

The follow-up application of the DAAD-Project “DiaMiGo II – Dialogue on Migration Governance in the Euro-Mediterranean Region – 2025-2026” between the University of Cologne (UoC) and the American University in Cairo (AUC) has been successful.

Our Mission

We believe that an intercultural, interdisciplinary and intersectional framework and dialogue is needed in order to further our understanding of migration, politics and dynamics between the two shores of the Mediterranean, including historical and contemporary power relations and geo-political interests.
