Borders, Responsibility, and Refugee Governance In a Changing Protection Landscape
The webinar examines forced migration through the lens of global governance, focusing on the interconnected roles of Turkey, Greece, and France within broader regional and international systems of refugee protection and migration management.
Rather than treating displacement as a challenge faced only at Europe’s margins, the discussion considers how governance is shaped across countries of transit, arrival, and political decision-making.
This event will also feature an on-campus watch party, providing Columbia students with the chance to engage with these discussions in their community. In the autumn, we will also hold faculty dialogues, policy workshops, and student programming at the campus. Register for the in-person watch party at Columbia.
Speakers
- Ahmet İçduygu, Director of Migration Research Center (MiReKoc), Koç University
- Wael Haffar Habbal, Columbia University Displaced Student Scholar
- Ayten Gündoğdu (Moderator), Associate Professor of Political Science, Barnard College
About the Series
This event is part of a global series, Displacement in a Changing World: Global Dialogue Across Campus and Continents, a year-long initiative convened by Columbia Global to explore the evolving realities of displacement around the world. Through regional events hosted by Columbia Global Centers and cross-campus dialogues in New York, the series brings together scholars, practitioners, policymakers, and students to examine the drivers of displacement, emerging policy responses, and the future of global protection frameworks.
