Call for abstracts: mobility of healthcare professionals This panel seeks to explore mobility of healthcare professionals such as nu= rses, care workers, doctors, or dentists. In times of worldwide increasing = labour shortages in healthcare, many healthcare institutions are aiming to = attract healthcare professionals from abroad. For example, according to WHO= statistics, one in eight nurses currently practice in a country different = from the one they were born in or trained. While their skills are in high d= emand, at the same time, some healthcare professionals, especially those mo= ving from the Global South to the Global North, encounter obstacles such as= de-skilling and a lack of recognition of qualifications. In this panel we = aim to examine mobility of healthcare professionals from different perspect= ives, raising questions such as: How do processes such as de-skilling and c= ultural differences in medical practice play a role in the experiences of m= igrant healthcare professionals? How does working abroad for shorter or lon= ger periods of time impact their career development and aspirations? What a= re the experiences of mobile and non-mobile healthcare professionals with w= orking in an international environment? How do sending and receiving states= regulate mobility and/or migration of healthcare professionals and with wh= at effects? What is the role of national bodies such as nursing association= s or licensing organisations? What are the experiences of healthcare profes= sionals who are family migrants or forced migrants and want to practice in = their country of settlement? Aiming for a more nuanced perspective on mobil= ity of healthcare professionals, we especially (but not exclusively) welcom= e contributions that focus on mobility within the Global South as well as o= n return migration.
