Скачать или смотреть Episode 4 - Migration

This episode explores the complex problem migration presents in origin and receptor cities by acknowledging the intensified migration already underway in conflict areas and regions affected by climate change and highlighting the need to adjust the language we use to describe migration.

Norma and Sarah share their experiences from both their academic research and onsite operational perspectives. They explore the misconceptions and polarised conversations around the causes and effects of migration across the globe and how this can stigmatise communities.

In addition, they discuss how we can foster the reception and integration of migrants into secondary cities, emphasising the need to preserve their fundamental right to self-agency. Whilst Norma and Sarah identify the positive impact migrants can have on communities, they also caution against romanticising this impact as it can be detrimental.
