Launch of Mind The (Immigration) Gap Project

Launching of Mind the (Immigration) Gap Project

Join us on International Women’s Day 2025 for the launch, hosted by Walk347 in collaboration with NAS Magna Carta. The launch kickstarts Walk347’s research initiative, which examines the socio-economic and emotional effects of the Nigerian migration phenomenon (locally known as “Japa”) on families. 

The project explores the expectations of those intending to migrate, the lived realities of migrants in the UK, and the challenges experienced by left-behind families in Nigeria. By gathering robust, data-driven insights, the initiative aims to inform practical policy recommendations and enhance public awareness around migration-related family separation and integration challenges.
