In 2020, UNHCR reported that 1,116 people died while attempting to cross the Mediterranean Sea from North Africa and Turkey to Europe (not including those lost at sea). The Migration Crisis on Europe’s southern border is only one aspect of a politics of migration that is a fundamental characteristic of the European Union (EU) and its right of the free movement of peoples. Join guest speaker Paul Williams to learn about effects of the Migration Crisis on the cohesion of the EU and its potential avenues of response - from restructuring to engaging in new avenues of transnational democracy.
