Native Language Assessments for K-12 English Learners: Policy Considerations and State Practices By Julie Sugarman and Leslie Villegas Measuring Up? Using Monitoring and Evaluation to Make Good on the Promise of Refugee Sponsorship By Hanne Beirens and Aliyyah Ahad |
Dear readers, I would like to take a moment to introduce myself. In June I became the new editor of the Migration Information Source, and I’m beyond proud to lead its efforts providing fresh, authoritative, and global perspectives on migration. My background is in journalism, and over my career I’ve reported on migration and politics, among other issues, from four continents. I was based in Uganda as it became home to more than 1 million refugees fleeing the civil war in South Sudan, and have reported on migration from the Myanmar-Bangladesh border and the Spanish enclave city of Melilla. Human mobility is both a reaction to and a driver of so many important political, economic, and cultural trends, and I’m excited to shape and curate in-depth analysis of these issues at the Source. My goal at the Source is to closely examine the migratory flows capturing the headlines while also shining a light on important movements, trends, and changing policies slipping under the radar—as well as how immigrants shape and are shaped by their locations of origin and destination. The Migration Information Source is, we hope, a valuable resource for scholars, policymakers, service providers, researchers, journalists, and others who care deeply about how humans move around the world, and my aim is to investigate the causes and effects of immigration across the continuum. I am thrilled to take up the mantle at the Source and continue its tradition of bringing you interesting, thought-provoking research and analysis from some of the leading and up-and-coming researchers around the world. As part of this mission, I am committed to meaningfully engage with readers. Please reach out with questions, concerns, or thoughts at [email protected]. Thank you for reading. Best regards, Julian Hattem Editor, Migration Information Source [email protected]
