What Matters: Katrina Burgess on Migrant Journeys in the Americas

Mar 28, 2023, 12pm EDT

What information do migrants get, and from where, about their prospects for reaching their intended destination? The answers to these questions have major implications for U.S. asylum and border policies, which are currently failing at their stated objectives while causing unnecessary human suffering. Katrina will share her own journey on this topic and will explore its relevance to hotly-contested debates over migration in the United States.
