Nora Stel, Assistant Professor in Conflict Studies, is part of a new Horizon Europe research consortium called GAPS. Together with other researchers from Radboud University and all over Europe, she will conduct a comprehensive multidisciplinary study on the drivers of return policies and barriers and enablers in international cooperation on returns. GAPs is an interdisciplinary 3-year project (2023-2026), co-coordinated by Uppsala University and Bonn International Centre for Conflict Studies with 17 partners in 12 countries across 4 continents. The research examines the disconnects between expectations of return policies and their actual outcomes by de-centring the dominant, one-sided understanding of “return policymaking.”
