Interested scholars please contact nyuad.programs@nyu.eduThe workshop brings together researchers, policy makers, and practitioners from inter-governmental and non-governmental organizations to examine how the Global Compact on Refugees addresses the concerns and aspirations of those displaced from Syria. It examines how policy makers and practitioners alongside academic researchers situate themselves in relation to the Global Compact on Refugees and other critical humanitarian issues, thus bringing an interdisciplinary focus on to the Global Compact on Refugees (2018) and the forced displacement of more than 6 million Syrians since 2011.
