The IMAGINATION project focuses on migration from Central and Eastern-European (CEE) countries. This project centres on the question what the consequences are of this type of mobility for urban cohesion and urban policies. The project focuses on urban regions in Austria, the Netherlands, Sweden and Turkey and includes the perspective of the CEE countries themselves as well.
