The NODE network is led by the University of Birmingham’s Institute for Research into Superdiversity (IRiS) and Waseda University’s Institute for Asian Migrations (IAM) and brings social sciences, arts and humanities academics from the UK and Japan together to develop new knowledge and insight about migration-driven socio-demographic change resulting from old and new migrations. The network offers opportunities for new directions of scholarly work comparing migration in Japan and the UK.
