| The Mediterranean Migration Observatory (MMO) was created in 1998 by Martin Baldwin-Edwards (formerly of Queens University Belfast) and Prof. Xanthi Petrinioti, Panteion University. In 1999 it was established as a research unit of the Research Institute of Urban Environment and Human Resources (UEHR), Panteion University of Athens.
MMO has two Co-Directors (Martin Baldwin-Edwards and Xanthi Petrinioti) and is guided by two committees: the International Advisory Board, consisting of recognized scientists and researchers on Mediterranean migration, and the Hellenic Scientific Committee, composed of many of the leading Greek researchers and which has an advisory role concerning the research strategy of the Observatory.
