Deconstructing Myths and Negative Narratives Around Migration

Conversations about migration are largely shaped by myths and misconceptions that distort our understanding. How might we move beyond these myths and embrace a more informed conversation that draws on real-world experience?

Join us for a conversation with experts to discuss a forthcoming report, “Deconstructing Myths and Negative Narratives Around Migration.”

The report is produced by the OAS Department of Social Inclusion, Equilibrium CenDE, and the Club de Madrid, the world’s largest forum of democratic former presidents and prime ministers. The conversation will draw on the experience of such countries as Colombia, Peru, and Mexico. The discussion will explore various understandings and discourses about migration as well as policies and practices and the various ways in which populations react to migration.

Presented by the Department of Social Inclusion, part of the Organization of American States’ Secretariat for Access to Rights and Equity, in partnership with the Club de Madrid, Equilibrium CenDE, conduction with the Pulte Institute, the Kellogg Institute, and Notre Dame’s Keough School of Global Affairs.
