Forced Migration Through the Lens of Gender: A Narrative of Struggle, Resilience, and Women’s Rights

This webinar will present a panel discussion on gender and migration between women activists with lived experiences of forced migration and Associate Professor Marciana Popescu, Ph.D. Together, they will frame migration from the perspective of gender. Professor Dana Alonzo, Ph.D., will moderate.

Students will also have the opportunity to indicate interest in a new project, in which they will collaborate with Popescu and Alonzo, focusing on increasing access to health/mental health care for women asylum seekers in New York City. The project will take place over the summer and through fall 2021.
