Robin Finlay is an urban geographer of diasporas and migration. For his PhD in human geography, he investigated how the Moroccan diaspora in Granada, Spain, have transformed urban space, and how the spatiality of Granada engenders distinctive diasporic identity formations, senses of belonging and spatial practices. In 2015 Robin worked as a research associate on the ESRC funded comparative project titled ‘Super-diverse streets: Economies and spaces of urban migration in UK Cities’ at the London School of Economics. Robin also has policy oriented research experience, working as a quantitative research officer in the Migration and Borders Analysis team at the Home Office in London. He holds an MA in human geography research from Newcastle University and BA (hons) in Spanish and Tourism studies from Northumbria University.
