Panel Discussion:
Perspectives on the European Refugee Crisis

International Affairs Building, Room 1219, Columbia University
The CU Central and Eastern European Club and East Central European Center are proud to host the panel discussion Perspectives on the European Refugee Crisis on Wednesday, November 4 from 6:30 to 8:30 pm. In this discussion we hope to shed light on the way in which populations view the incoming waves of refugees and how their attitudes have affected government policy. At the same time, we hope to explore how governments attempt to shape the responses of their populations to these newcomers.
