Multiple experiences and meanings of migrations are negotiated in everyday interactions at state offices, social centers and work places. Mobility or uprootedness is an equivalent state of existence to a settled life; both are co-existent in the ambivalent symbiosis. In the social sciences, the settler's perspective is being preferredand considered the norm. We are looking for ways to creatively deal with this ambivalence instead of disregarding it. The project is here to boost critical thinking about the contemporary world, and to examine and re-consider politics and
