The live webinar will tackle different topics, in relation to migration; the concept of borders, sea rescue and saving lives, discrimination, xenophobia and counternarratives, with a particular focus on COVID-19, while taking into consideration the Global Compact for Migration and the New EU Pact on Migration and Asylum. On this occasion, Agora Europe will also launch its new initiative “Dictionary on Mobility and Borders” (DMB).
