Summary
In collaboration with the Norwegian Social Research (NOVA) and the Peace Research Institute of Oslo (PRIO), CebaM carried out a three-year anthropological study exploring contemporary female mobility between Poland and Norway. The project aimed to enhance theoretical and empirical understanding of Polish female migrants’ integration in the labor markets and educational systems in Norway; investigate the impact of transnationality and liquid migration on migrants’ socio-economic integration in Norway and socio-economic conditions of sending communities in Poland; and identify and analyze strategies used by Polish migrant women to secure employment and educational opportunities for themselves and their children
