Migration flows between Germany and Turkey have been discussed in the political, scientific and public arena for many years. While the debate originally focused on Turkish workers in Germany, a recent shift can be observed that can be attributed to a rising number of people migrating from Germany to Turkey. In this context, increasing attention has been paid to the emigration of highly qualified second and third generation descendants of Turkish immigrants to Germany. Even though research on migration between Germany and Turkey has been conducted in various academic fields, up to now, only little is known about the economic effects of highly-skilled return migrants of Turkish origin.
The conference aims at addressing this gap by bringing together researchers from different disciplines studying this phenomenon, such as geography, sociology, economics and migration studies, but also company representatives and highly-qualified people of Turkish origin. Three thematic sessions will deal with the potentials that highly qualified return migrants can create for the German-Turkish economic relations.
The conference is part of the project
“(Re-)Migrants in the German - Turkish innovation network – idenification and communicaion of potential for science and the economy – MIDETI” funded by the German Federal Ministry of Educaion and Research (BMBF).
