The paper from University of Vienna “Exploring the Missing Link – The Role of Media and Communication Theory in Migration Decision-Making” has been accepted and will be presented at the 17th IMISCOE Annual Conference in Luxembourg!
While reflecting on migration theories, the proposed theoretical framework focuses on the concept of media and information literacy and examines the influence of different types of communication (mass media, networks, interpersonal) on migration aspiration. Thereby, it also addresses the continuous nature of migration and the possibility to access all three types of communication via mobile devices during this process.
