Donia Human Rights Center Panel. Detaining Refugee Children: What’s At Stake?
November 14, 2018 - 6:45 PM to 8:15 PM ET
The intensifying border control efforts by the Trump administration came to a head earlier this year when the authorities started aggressively attacking the integrity of families seeking asylum in the U.S., keeping children in detention separate from their parents. Subsequent legal battles and public debates revealed strong sentiments against the policy, leading to a rare concession by the administration. As efforts to reunite families continue, this panel of three experts examines the psychological, political, and legal impact of the policy on the families, policy makers, and public opinions, asking the question of what's at stake.
This Donia Human Rights Center Panel is co-sponsored by: Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy, Law School, and School of Social Work.
