Tuesday 11 November 2025 4.15pm - 7.30pm

You are warmly invited to join us for an afternoon and evening of activity and discussion, as part of an array of exciting events and collaborations supported through The Migrant Scholars Global Solidarity and Resistance network. The network and our event form part of a collective response of scholars, teachers, students and activists committed to defending academic freedom, discussing the realities of migration and standing in solidarity with migrants and refugees everywhere.

We’ll hold a poster-making session 4.15pm to 5.30pm, followed by a roundtable discussion 6pm to 7.30pm. Both activities will be held in OLD 3.24, Old Building.

You can drop in for the poster- making session.
