Dear colleagues, We are writing to invite you to attend three panel discussions about migration data as part of the Toronto regional node of the American Association of Geographers annual conference on *Friday, April 19th.* The sessions are focused on discussing how to research, preserve, and share migration-related data, and are organized by the founders of *Haven: The Asylum Lab,* a new lab at the University of Toronto Scarborough that aims to become a repository for global migration data sets and to encourage international and cross-disciplinary conversations around migration data. The three panels are: 1. Collecting Obscured International Migration Data (featuring Haven website launch and first data drop) 2. International Migration Data and Contemporary Bordering Practices 3. Methodological Approaches to, Experiences of and Challenges in Making Access to Information Requests Please consider joining us in person (register here <https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=JsKqeAMvTUuQN7RtVsVSEK6I0Qgl8FVKiGkQT0z4BjJUNU05M0RKUlI0VkNXWE84R0lIM1BOSjlZSC4u>) or online (participation is free). Details for each session, including Zoom links, are in the attached PDF. *About Haven: The Asylum Lab* Haven: The Asylum Lab is dedicated to the preservation and sharing of migration-related data, by providing space, infrastructure, resources, and tools to support collaborative analysis of these data, so that we can collectively have and share better access and tell better stories and counternarratives with data. Beyond our brick-and-mortar lab in Scarborough, we are also a global network and an online archive for data. We are in the process of launching a new website that will support these functions. Haven’s website will feature a monthly data drop. Each data drop will profile the work of a researcher or project that assembled a unique data set, now archived at U of T through Haven. The drop will be accompanied by a podcast interview where researchers explain the importance and collection of these data, as well as papers and other work conducted with these data, and a webinar where researchers discuss how to operationalize methods used to collect these data (e.g., visualization, access to information requests). The Haven website will make it possible for those interested to be involved in multiple ways: by contributing data, by joining the Haven network, or by using our resources in the classroom. We look forward to sharing more information with you and hope that we can collaborate at Haven in some capacity soon.
