REACH Highlights from Language and Migration Symposium

Refugee REACH director Sarah Dryden-Peterson of HGSE delivered a keynote address titled “Language, Migration, and Education: Threading Past, Present, and Future-Building,” as part of the Language and Migration: Experience and Memory event that took place on April 19, 2021.

This interdisciplinary symposium, hosted by the Princeton Institute for International and Regional Studies, convened humanists and social scientists, fieldworkers and policymakers, artists and writers, to think together about migrants as resourceful users, interpreters, and creators of language.
