In the 20 years since the Migration Policy Institute (MPI) was founded, international migration trends and policies have changed in dramatic ways. The number of migrants has increased, many more migrants are in mixed flows with humanitarian protection needs, and migration has become a much more salient political issue in countries around the world.
What do these trends presage for the future in terms of international migration governance and humanitarian protection?
The Director-General of the International Organization for Migration, António Vitorino, and the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, Filippo Grandi, will join MPI co-founders Demetrios G. Papademetriou and Kathleen Newland for wide-ranging conversations on these and other topics, with Kids in Need of Defense (KIND) President Wendy Young.
Please join us for MPI's 20th Anniversary Conference.
