Academic Advisory Board of the (German) Federal Office for Migration and Refugees

Evidence-based research can ideally help migration policy set realistic goals and better achieve them. For this reason, the Research Center of the (German) Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF) in Nuremberg supports migration policy and practice by providing state-of-the-art analyses and evaluations. An academic advisory board serves as an consultative body to optimize the strategic orientation and to approach new research projects in a targeted manner. Since the fall of 2022, Daniel Thym has been serving as a new member of the advisory board, succeeding long-time member Kay Hailbronner, also from the University of Konstanz. In addition, Professor Thym continues to serve as chairman of the Advisory Board for Research Migration at the BAMF.
