Introduction

Abstract

This issue serves as a companion piece to a previous JPIC publication (n. 3, 2022), edited by Fortuna Procentese and Laura Migliorini, which served primarily to describe the individual and societal burdens associated with the current migrant crisis, and to present state-of-the-art methods for continuing research in this area. Conversely, the aims of the present volume are to deepen how existing psychological knowledge related to migration issues, inform future scientific, and technological responses as well as cultural and political advances and what additional research is required on this topic.

Keywords: Engagement; hope; migration contexts; resilience; sense of community.
