Refugees and Global Migration: Humanity’s Crisis

30th Annual Camden Conference

The 30th Annual Camden Conference, Refugees and Global Migration: Humanity’s Crisis, explored the varied causes of the current international crisis and the unique challenges that come with accepting immigrants from particular countries, regions, and demographic groups. Speakers examined the political, economic, and social consequences of population flight for the countries they have abandoned in the Middle East, Africa, and Central America. Going beyond the present crisis, conference speakers discussed the factors that will likely drive migration in the coming decades: dramatic demographic shifts; climate change and natural disasters; and ethnic, territorial, and political conflicts. And, turning the spotlight in our direction, speakers considered the role that should be played by the United States, a country built by immigrants.
