ABOUT
THE COLLABORATIVE

The Im/migrant Well-Being Scholar Collaborative is a network of researchers, centers, and institutes working together to translate research on the lived experiences of im/migrants and their communities for impact in national policymaking.

WHY WELL-BEING?

Well-being has been identified by organizations such as the CDC, NIH, and UN as a critical concept for both creating public policies and analyzing their impact. Elevating research on the social, emotional, relational, economic, psychological, and physical well-being of im/migrants explicitly addresses the needs of peoples excluded in contemporary empirical and policy-making approaches and benefits everyone.
