With just weeks to go before the (current) Article 50 deadline for the UK's exiting the European Union, there are enormous uncertainties for the country - and Europe - as a whole. But what impact will Brexit have on refugees, an already vulnerable population navigating complex legal realms?
Join us for a panel discussion featuring Queen Mary University Professor Elspeth Guild, an expert in EU Law and migration; Dr. Eiko Thielemann, Associate Professor at the LSE and an expert on the European Union and on immigration; and Matthew Saltmarsh, a representative from the UN High Commissioner for Refugees as they discuss the particular uncertainties Brexit and the move away from common EU policies brings to refugees in the UK.
