The programme features a keynote lecture by Katarzyna Kubin and a series of thematic panels addressing diasporic activism in times of war, sport migration and racism, African experiences in Czechia, Czech perceptions of the "Orient", migration and media representation, the coloniality of integration, and migrant care work. Through interdisciplinary dialogue and personal narratives, the workshop aims to foster critical reflection on migration and belonging in contemporary societies.
