My career as a researcher and university professor has been marked by interdisciplinarity, an approach by which I bet to analyze the complex and hybrid sociocultural reality in which we currently live the social sciences. Birth of an initial and postgraduate training in Social and Cultural Anthropology, closely linked to social intervention. My postgraduate training was taught by teachers from the Department of Social Anthropology and Social Work of the University of Granada. After participating as a fellow in various research projects on the reality of the migrant population in schools in Andalusia, I was able to obtain a predoctoral training grant from the Department of Social Work and Social Services of the Pablo de Olavide University, Seville (Spain) . My doctoral thesis focused on a comparison of public policies and intercultural practices in Spain and Mexico from two schools as case studies. Most of the publications, as well as the participation in congresses address this issue, receiving my doctoral research the prize of the Intercultural Chair City of Córdoba in 2013.
This commitment to interdisciplinarity leads me to participate in different networks and associations where, as in the rest of my career, my political commitment to my research interests such as: attention to minority groups; the field of migrations; a gender and human rights approach and the application of all this to social intervention and action.

About the Migration Network Hub
What is the Migration Network Hub?
The Hub is a virtual “meeting space” where governments, stakeholders and experts can access and share migration-related information and services. It provides curated content, analysis and information on a variety of topics.
The Hub aims to support UN Member States in the implementation, follow-up and review of the Global Compact for Migration by serving as a repository of existing evidence, practices and initiatives, and facilitating access to knowledge sharing via online discussions, an expert database and demand-driven, tailor-made solutions (launching in 2021).
Submit your content
What content is displayed in the Hub?
The Hub aims to help you find information on migration, ranging from policy briefs and journal articles, existing portals and platforms and what they offer, to infographics and videos. The different types of resources submitted by users undergo peer review by a panel of experts from within the UN and beyond, before being approved for inclusion in the Hub. To provide guidance to users based on findings of the needs assessment, the content is ordered so that more comprehensive and global resources are shown before more specific and regional ones. Know a great resource? Please submit using the links above and your suggestion will be reviewed. Please see the draft criteria for existing practices here.
Apply to join the Peer Review Roster
Content submitted to the Migration Network Hub is first peer reviewed by experts in the field from both the UN and beyond. Applications are welcomed to join the roster on an ongoing basis. Learn more here.
