Hi Lucy, Within India? Or beyond?
In the 1980s and 1990s, there was Peter Nazareth's anthology (a very comprehensive collection) and Teresa Albuquerque's writing on Goans in East Africa (she later wrote on Bombay too). Check out the works of Alan Machado and Gopalakrishna Pai (Goan migration to the South). Braz Menezes' trilogy ended up as a series of five books, dealing with the Goans mainly in Kenya (a fictionalised narrative). Margret Frenz and the XCHR study on Goan migration are fairly comprehensive, and from an academic perspective. Selma Carvalho has written on Goans in the English speaking world and East Africa. Cyprian "Skip" Fernandes has two books on life in Kenya and the musicians and sportspersons of East Africa, respectively. The story of Sita Valles, and the writings on/of Aquino Braganca, and Carolina Costa give us a glimpse of Goan life in Portuguese-ruled Africa, and beyond. There must be other titles I'm missing out here, as am just writing from memory and in a hurry to catch the morning fast train to town! FN

Goa Uni library and state archives would surely help.

Hello Lucy,

There are several works namely by Selma Carvalho, Margret Frenz and Stella Mascarenhas-Keyes. I would defenitely advise you to contact Eduardo  Faleiro. Brenda Coutinho has this study - https://journals.library.brocku.ca/index.php/ijpds/article/download/3267/2520. See also this article by Irene Silveira - Goa to Paris: migration trajectories, settlement struggles, and social networks: South Asian Diaspora: Vol 16 , No 1 - Get Access (tandfonline.com). There are several works focused on migrant communities in the countries of destiny. In addition, there are organizations All depends also whether you want to have a more historical perspective or more focused on the present and, within it by what kind of perspective.

Kind regards,

Sandra

There was a genealogy case study that I did some years ago, which was published in the attached. 

I have given talks on the subject of Goan migration to East Africa and its links to British naval and trading expansion in Hong Kong and Italy, but these are not published.

Dear Lucy,

In fiction do check out all translated works by the Project Pensando Goa, in particular the translations done by Paulo Melo e Castro, and especially his translation of Vimala Devi's works. There are many 19th century references to Goan migration in these works originally written in Portuguese. Also, do check out the project 'Oral Histories of British-Goans' a four-year project head by me, and archived at the British Library. A similar project is underway in Bombay associated with the writer Jane Borges, documenting Goan migration to Bombay. 

All best wishes,

Selma

Thanks so much Sandra...

Im looking at the historical/ geo-political perspective and grounding it in Theory. Besides economic, I'd like to find out if climate change has also been a factor.

Warm regards,

Lucy

Dear Lucy,

Climate change is not yet a factor in Goan migration. It might well be in the decades ahead. Goa has a history of migration dating back to the 19th century when the salt treaty with the British provided the first push factor out of Goa. Then came the pull factors of port towns and a life that was seaborne. By 1926, of the rougly 30,000 sailors registered by the Bombay shipping office, 10,000 were Goans, almost all employed as stewards. The other pull factor is that migration occured in tandem with Indian migration. Goan migration does not exist in isolation, it is always found to co-exist with Indian migration of Parsis, Kutch, Khojah and Baniya settlements.

The next great pull factor was the Arabian gulf migration. It is wrong to assume this was solely because of oil. There were Goan businesses in Muscat dating back to 1880. 

Lastly came the new migrations of UK, USA, Australia and Canada. Each of these has a different history to it, which I'm now too lazy to type out by do check out East African displacement post-colonisation and the Portuguese passport.

Take care,

selma
