In the coming weeks, we will be posting a series of articles, summaries and feedback from the conference.
We also plan to use this site as a way of connecting the various conference participants and their colleagues in order to create a network of like-minded academics, providers, policymakers, lawyers, advocates and activists interested in addressing the on-going refugee and migrant health and human rights crisis.
In the meantime, we encourage you to review the publicly available powerpoint presentations. We will also be making an audio recording of the conference available soon.
If you have any questions or suggestions for moving our efforts forward, please feel free to contact us directly.
