Victoria Sanford

This Masterclass, by Victoria Sanford (Lehman College, City University of New York) will shed light on the ongoing migration crisis and humanitarian disaster on the southern US border through the prism of corruption and violence as root causes of forced migration from Central America. Current policies of humanitarian aid coupled with increased border enforcement are neither slowing forced migration nor addressing root causes.
This masterclass focuses on ways in which international actors from the private sector, public sector, and civil society can support anti-corruption efforts, increase government accountability, improve daily life for citizens, and decrease forced migration.
