The Migration Studies Delegation (Delmi) is an independent committee, funded by the Swedish Government, whose primary objective is to provide background input for future migration policy. It disseminates, summarises, translates, and promotes existing Swedish and international research.

Delmi also initiates new studies in the field of migration and integration, and can commission studies, research and reports. It is currently accepting new proposals for research projects.

Proposals can be submitted by individuals within Delmi itself (committee members or members of the secretariat), as well as by external applicants such as researchers, experts, officials, and other stakeholders in the migration and integration field. Reports and research overviews will be carried out by academic researchers.
