Progetto MSCA Mig. Pro. - Final Conference - Afternoon

Описание: 13 October 2025
Food Production and Institutionalised Exploitation
A dialogue between Trans-Atlantic resistance practices of Migrant
Agricultural Worker-activists, their networks of allies and academia

The conference is the final results-sharing event of the project: Marie Skłodowska-Curie Mig. Pro. Migrants’ protests: how the borders of citizenship are conceived, mobilized and constructed by migrants’ farm workers protests.
Following institutional greetings, the day's agenda includes a summary of the research process and research results. The contributions from speakers are structured across three main panels. The first panel was designed to foster a dialogue between activists from Canada and two Italian regions that have historically been sites of struggle for migrant agricultural workers. They interacted with the general audience and the national representative of FLAI CGIL, exploring the not/interconnections between activism, working conditions, legal interventions, and social projects—particularly in the Italian context of fighting labour exploitation.
The afternoon continued with two panels. The first showcased various forms of mobilization, including legal avenues, chosen by workers and their support networks. The second panel connectd these practical phenomena and strategies with academic research, presenting analysis, reflections, and key questions about the current state of research concerning interdisciplinarity, applicability/practice based, ethics and care of the research process itself.
