Migration, identity, belonging: big questions of our time. What can the Italian experience in West Yorkshire teach us?

Migration, identity, belonging: these are some of the biggest questions of our time. But what can the Italian experience in West Yorkshire teach us about them? In this session, Professor La Sala examines the history and contemporary realities of Italian migration to Leeds and the wider region, drawing on personal testimonies, community histories, and new research. Discover the stories behind one of Yorkshire's lesser-known diasporas and explore how migration shapes both newcomers and the places they call home.
