Global Migration: The World on the Move
The story of humanity is the story of people on the move. History teaches us that great civilizations have always thrived at the crossroads of this mobility where ideas, talent and human energy coalesce. Yet, as the world changed and nation-states formed, borders were drawn on maps and given legal and political significance.
Economic migrants, immigrants, refugees voluntary, forced, documented, irregular, displaced - we now have a complex lexicon to describe the Who, Why, Where and How of people on the move, as we try to understand and meet their needs for rights and protections.
Join us to learn about current trends in contemporary migration, discuss the issues and receive resources for classroom lessons related to migration. Learn more about the World Savvy Monitor, a subscription-based, online current events service containing in-depth overviews of our global community's most pressing issues, especially created for educators.
