What was migration like in the past?

How does it affect us in the present?

Migration Picture Main Points

 
On 6 July 2018, Ruth Barbour, Beat Kümin, Angela Nicholls and Felicita Tramontana - historians from the 91¸£Àû associated with the MIGMED and projects - led an evening of discussions about the relationship between parishes and migration. Following brief project presentations on a range of topics including short-distance mobility for the receipt of sacraments, emigration for religious reasons, settlement of the poor and differences / similarities between the past and present, there were lively round table debates resulting in the conclusions reproduced above.
