Program Description

Event Details

The Great Decisions Series is a part of the Great Decisions World Education Program.  Experts offer presentations on global issues and U.S. foreign policy.  

Today, no countries have open borders.  Who determines whether someone is a refugee or a migrant?  How have different countries reacted to migration?  How effective are the international laws, policies and organizations that have evolved to assist and protect refugees and migrants?
