Education EN ↓ 27 episodes

The Sawyer Seminar Series, hosted by Boston University's Center on Forced Displacement, is designed as a comparison between US and EU policies to acknowledge both the exceptional character of the US and EU’s influence and the similarities in their border externalization regimes. By engaging ethics, history, and culture, alongside international relations, technology studies, and public health, we hope that our Seminar will suggest a better path forward. This Sawyer Seminar Series is made possible with funding support from the Mellon Foundation.
