Borders, Migration, Exclusion: The role of civil society and humanitarian aid in an increasingly polarized political context | Seminar @ 280N York Lanes, YorkU Keele Campus

The Centre for Refugee Studies presents DIGHR Community Scholar Linn Biorklund Belliveau in a seminar exploring the political context of humanitarian aid provision among refugee populations.

Linn Biorklund Belliveau is a researcher at Dahdaleh Institute for Global Health Research and at Médecins Sans Frontières, and an affiliate at the Centre for Refugee Studies at York University. Her areas of knowledge include forced migration, transnational networks, climate politics, and access to care. Linn has extensive experience with non-governmental organisations and the United Nations in the fields of humanitarianism and human rights. She has worked and carried out research in East Africa, the Middle East and Latin America, and is a regular guest speaker on forced migration and the politics of aid. At DIGHR she specifically focuses on the nexus of ‘climate change, migration and health,’ and related inadequacies of global migration response systems.
