Description

Every minute, 24 people are forced to leave their homes and over 65 million are currently displaced worldwide. Small wonder that tackling the refugee and migration crisis has become a global political priority.

But can this crisis be resolved and, if so, how? In this compelling essay, renowned human rights lawyer and scholar Jacqueline Bhabha explains why forced migration demands compassion, generosity, and a more vigorous acknowledgement of our shared dependence on human mobility as a key element of global collaboration.

Unless we develop humane 'win-win' strategies for tackling the inequalities and conflicts driving migration and addressing the fears fuelling xenophobia, she argues, both innocent lives and cardinal human rights principles will be squandered in the service of futile nationalism and oppressive border control.

Can We Solve the Migration Crisis? challenges us to rethink our approach, highlighting the critical need for empathy and understanding in resolving one of the most pressing issues of our time.
