DEFENDING HUMANITY:
Caring for Refugees and Migrants Trapped in Danger
 
Tues., Dec. 17, 2019
7:30 PM (EST)
 
​
New US immigration policies have created a humanitarian emergency at the border and throughout the region. Asylum seekers are being sent back to dangerous cities in Mexico and other countries in the region wracked by violence. Meanwhile at the US-Mexico border, thousands of people languish near international bridges without access to medical care or basic services.

Join MSF for a discussion about helping people whose lives are threatened by increasingly restrictive immigration policies imposed by the US and Mexico. Participants include Samuel Almeida, regional deputy head of mission for MSF in Mexico, Denise Gilman, director of the Immigration Clinic at the University of Texas Law School, Adriana Quiroga, community organizer at The Refugee and Immigrant Center for Education and Legal Services (RAICES), and Avril Benoît, executive director of MSF-USA. Carlos Sanchez, writer at Texas Monthly, will moderate the discussion.
