Public Event: “Covid-19 – A game changer for migration (policy)?”
27 September 2021, 2-3:30pm CEST

Covid-19 in many aspects has changed our understanding of the world and it has significant effects on international migration and its policies. After more than one and a half years of the pandemic, in this panel we will discuss the consequences and lessons learned of the Covid-19 crisis for migration policy. Which weaknesses and strengths of the current system became obvious by the pandemic? What should be the way forward for migration policy? Which role can and should international actors play to support safe, legal and decent migration processes?

The German Development Institute / Deutsches Institut für Entwicklungspolitik (DIE) is excited to welcome a public audience to a discussion with experts from UNHCR, IOM, and think tanks.

Expert Discussion: “Migration policy between old and new challenges – A need to re-adjust research and policy?”
28 September 2021, 2-3:30pm CEST

More than two years after the Global Compacts on migration and refugees, more than one and a half years after the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, and in times of economic turmoil and new geopolitical challenges, it is time to reconsider: Do we need to readjust our research and policy agenda on migration policy? In this closed panel we will discuss the significance of migration policy in current times for regional and national levels. We ask whether there is a danger that it falls off the policy agenda of countries in the Global South and North.

The German Development Institute / Deutsches Institut für Entwicklungspolitik (DIE) is excited to welcome to a discussion with experts from academia from the Global South and North to critically reflect on the past two years of research and practice.
