Migration: WHEN and WHY do people move?

In the words of Dr. Seuss… “oh the places you’ll go!!”  Think about it.  The act of moving from one place to another.  I’m talking about migration.  How you and I move over our lifetime is not only life-changing.  It’s world-changing.  Think for example about the waves of migration after the two world wars.   They dramatically changed the composition and character of countries.  And migration changed us – our identity -  in the most fundamental way.  When and why do we move from one place to another?  How has that changed through history and over our lifetimes?  And what will migration look like in the future? Join us for a thought-provoking discussion!INFO ON GUEST:Michael Haan is an Assoc.
