Our work in Migration and Refugee Studies promotes understanding, effective policy, and community empowerment. In addition, we offer thesis conceptualisation support to students exploring migration and refugee themes, helping them shape strong, researchable ideas.
At M2B Consultancy Solutions (Pty) Ltd, based in South Africa and working with global clients across Africa, Europe, North America, and the Middle East, our Migration and Refugee Studies division focuses on the movement of people, humanitarian response, displacement challenges, and integration strategies.
