Migrations: A World on the Move

Our podcast seeks to understand the world through the interconnected movements that shape it. With each episode, postdoctoral fellow Eleanor Paynter speaks with experts who highlight how multidisciplinary, multispecies perspectives on migration help us understand key global issues.

The current season is bringing expert voices into conversation about the theme of crossing.


Migrations Visiting Artist

Our visiting artist program hosts anticolonial and antiracist artists who engage university and community members in collaboration with Cornell's Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art. Past visiting artists include Guadalupe Maravilla, Precious Okoyomon, and Al-An deSouza.

Read a review from Artforum of the most recent visiting artist exhibit. 


Creative Writing & Art Competition

The annual creative writing and art competition gives undergraduate and graduate students at Cornell to offer their unique perspectives on migration. Students answer the question: How does migration shape life in your community? Submissions show the connections between racism, dispossession, and migration in interdisciplinary, innovative, and impactful ways.
