The DEMINE (Dealing with conflicts related to Migration: Negotiating social cohesion through communication) European Joint Doctorate (DN-JD) network addresses a critical challenge facing Europe: the increasing prevalence of radicalisation and extremism, which threaten social cohesion, particularly in the context of migration. DEMINE's primary aim is to develop an interdisciplinary research and training programme that examines the complex relationships between mediated (conventional and social media) and interpersonal comThe DEMINE (Dealing with conflicts related to Migration: Negotiating social cohesion through communication) European Joint Doctorate (DN-JD) network is a collaborative initiative that spans multiple fields of study. Its main objective is to strengthen Europe's ability to confront a significant challenge: the increasing prevalence of various forms of radicalisation and extremism, which pose a threat to social unity. DEMINE accomplishes this by combining cross-sectoral mobility and a well-rounded mix of research-oriented and transferable skills development. The network aims to establish a much-needed framework for understanding the role and interaction of interpersonal and mediated communication in relations between different groups and conflicts related to migration and globalisation, ultimately contributing to social cohesion. DEMINE has designed a comprehensive research and training programme that delves into the intricate connections between various forms of communication, such as traditional media, social media, and face-to-face interactions. This programme seeks to unravel how different communication channels influence individuals' attitudes and beliefs regarding migration, as well as their impact on intergroup dynamics (social cohesion). This cross-country exploration takes place within the broader context of political and societal polarisation, as well as the processes of radicalisation, with a specific emphasis on aspects related to migration.
