Grant for Thomas Spijkerboer to further explore unexpected results

Share
5 August 2024
When you discover unexpected results during your research, you often can’t do anything with it. Because the research plan and budget didn’t allow for it. To explore these kinds of results either way, seven projects, including that of professor of Migration Law Thomas Spijkerboer of Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, will receive a grant thanks to the Impact Explorer call.

Making Rights Reality: the Human Rights of Undocumented Migrant Workers
The ‘Making Rights Reality’ project of professor of Migration Law Thomas Spijkerboer responds to the problem of exclusion of undocumented migrants from the full scope of human rights. By bringing together migrant human rights practitioners and activists with the UN Migrant Worker Committee in a ‘rights-making network’, this project strives to break new ground in international norms and their effective protection. At a rights-making conference, a plan will be formed to create a network that will bridge human rights practice and human rights norms through a collaboration of human rights actors from both the global north and global south with the UN Migrant Worker Committee.

About this call
The grant is intended for activities to validate the potential societal impact of discoveries from more curiosity-driven research, from the Talent Line and Open Competitions of both NWO and ZonMw and to explore a route towards it. A total of €1.000.000 is available for small grants between €20.000 and €30.000. A concise procedure will be used during the application process. Currently no new applications can be submitted.
