The historical experiences of interna tional trade and colonialism have pushed many people to move around the sca ttered islands of the archipelago. However, not everyone was heading beyond the borders of the Dutch colony and then the independent country - many In donesians migrated just within the state. The vast, fertile territories of Sumatra, Kalimantan and other so-called ‘outer islands’ attracted the inhab itants of overpopulated Java, Bali and Madura. The government supported the internal\nmigrations through the transmigration program, but its strict re quirements stimulated the spontaneous, unregistered relocations. Their real scale remains unknown, but they had a great impact on the indigenous terri tories of the ‘outer islands’. Turned out that sharing the same nationality is not enough to establish the foundations for interethnic relations. The official narratives often ignored the problematic diversity, claiming that the internal migrants should not perceive themselves as Javanese, Sumatran, or members of any other ethnic group, but above all, Indonesians. Meanwhil e, the migration within Indonesia is often a similar experience as migratio n to another country – people face the language, economic, and cultural bar riers that strengthen the inequalities, which bring a kind of social immobi lity. This panel attempt to answer the\nurgent questions for the under-rese arched issues of social and cultural aspects of internal mobility in Indone sia. How do host communities shape their attitude towards the new settlers from the other islands? How are the ethnic boundaries renegotiated during t he adaptation process of internal migrants in the new settlements? What is the impact of emerging challenges (e.g., climate change, religious policy) on the mobility in Indonesia? How does the presence of migrants reshape the culture of everyday life of both the host and immigrant communities? We in vite to the discussion around these questions with the fresh perspectives f rom the different regions of Indonesia.
