Il research meeting ha come obiettivo quello di far confrontare i ricercatori del centro di studi avanzati MOHU, del Cost action project WORCK e dei membri del gruppo SISLav Free and Unfree Labour sulla im-mobilità del lavoro. L'incontro ha anche come obiettivo quello di espandere il network e per questo saranno organizzati non solo panel ma anche tavole rotonde di discussione di temi specifici e progetti di ricerca.

Il programma dettagliato si trova in allegato.
