Forced Migration in/to Canada: A Public Lecture on the Topic of Migration and Human Rights at Emmanuel United Church

January 24, 2025 @ 6:30 pm - 9:00 pm

Over 120 million people are displaced globally. Who are the people behind these numbers? How is Canada responding to forced migration?

How can we – as concerned citizens committed to social justice – take meaningful action?

Join us for a free public lecture to learn more about forced migration in the world today.

Doors open at 6:30pm and the event starts at 7 pm on Friday, January 24, 2025.

Christina Clark-Kazak is Professor, Public and International Affairs at the University of Ottawa, with broad experience in government, civil society and academia. She has authored and (co-)edited 11 books, over 30 articles and book chapters, and many policy briefs on forced migration, age discrimination, ethics and methodology. She holds a doctorate from Oxford, a master’s from Cambridge and a BA from UBC.

You can make a free will offering to support Emmanuel’s general fund. Book sales will benefit Global Partners in Zambia & El Salvador

One of her latest books, “Forced Migration in/to Canada: From Colonization to Refugee Resettlement,” will be on sale: at the lecture
