Center for International and Regional Studies (CIRS) Research Projects

(Re)Collecting Sudan: Art and Culture Archives

Sudan in the Picture: Research on Sudanese Cinema

Migrant Stories from Qatar

Rethinking Migration Categories from the Global South

  • Launched in Spring 2025, “(Re)Collecting Sudan: Art and Culture Archives,” led by Suzi Mirgani, PhD,  brought together 38 scholars, artists, archivists, and experts to examine the state of the country’s cultural archives, surveying what has been lost, highlighting what remains, and actively supporting continued artistic creation and knowledge production. Over two workshops, the participants refined papers that will constitute an edited volume or special issue.
  • In Fall 2025, “Sudan in the Picture: Research on Sudanese Cinema,” brought together 26 academic, researchers, and filmmakers to examine Sudanese films and filmmaking as a vital tool for preserving memory, bearing witness to violence, articulating loss, and envisioning collective futures in the face of erasure and fragmentation.
  • The “Migrant Stories from Qatar” project expanded significantly in 2025, collecting 20 diverse oral histories that were made into short podcasts and developed into a digital exhibit which includes material that reflects the broader historical, social, economic, and cultural context around migrant laborer experiences in Qatar. Alongside the publicly available digital exhibit, the project includes a digital archive of longer oral histories and written transcripts that are coded, edited, and de-identified.
  • Launched at the end of 2025, “Rethinking Migration Categories from the Global South” examines how identical qualifications and work histories are valued differently across nationalities, races, genders, and destination contexts, to conceptualize skill categorization as a political tool that legitimizes hierarchical migration governance.

The research project “Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine” resulted in the 2025 publication of a CIRS policy brief edited by Nikolay Koshanov titled Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine: Assessments, Implications, Prospects.” The project was offered in collaboration with the Gulf Studies Center at Qatar University.

Research Events

More than 64 academic events, primarily driven by faculty research and public engagement interests, were organized during the academic year. This included the invitation of 18 scholars from across the world to lecture and give workshops across a range of topics related to the five key curricular areas: international economics, international politics, culture and politics, international history, and Arabic. These engagements represented research cross pollination with institutions including universities from across America, as well as Bilkent University, Turkey, Tilberg University, the Netherlands, London School of Economics, University of Edinburgh, and Queen Mary University in the UK, University of Hradec Králové, Czechia, and University of Vienna, Austria. 

Three book launch events encouraged local engagement with published research including for Energy Citizenship by Trish Kahle, PhD, Islamic Law on Trial by Sohaira Siddiqui, PhD; and Memories, Archived: Contemporary Views from South Asia (Sunaparanta Goa Centre for the Arts, 2024) co-edited by Dale Menezes, GU-Q Doctoral Fellow 2024-2025.

CIRS events further fostered collegial exchange and research advancement by hosting 19 research working groups and public lectures inviting scholars from across the EC multiversity and the world to workshop papers and share their current work for feedback, while also advancing student research through presentations and research feedback sessions.
