The GDP’s Michael Flynn was an invited participant at a workshop hosted by the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at the Geneva Press Club entitled “Infectious Disease: Stigmatization of Refugees and Vulnerable Migrants.” The event, which took place on 27 November, explored the impact of stigma on the opportunities and protections offered to migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers, and identified areas of policy development, with a special emphasis on international organisations. Participants included representatives from the World Health Organisation, the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, the International Organisation for Migration, the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, Médecins Sans Frontières, and the Graduate Institute. More information is available from the Fletcher School’s Leir Insititute.
