The Center for Migration Studies

The Center for Migration Studies of New York (CMS) supports and undertakes research and provides a forum for debate on international migration. CMS carries out its mission in three ways: circulating books and monographs and publishing International Migration Review, a leading peer-reviewed scholarly journal specialized in the subject of international migration; organizing conferences and forums on international migration, including the National Legal Conference on Immigration and Refugee Policy; and maintaining an archive that collects and makes available documentation on the experiences of people in transit. The CMS webpage includes many reports detailing the Center's research.
