That figure reached 103 million in mid-2022. Among them are nearly 27.1 million refugees\, around half of whom are under the age of 18. While these young people require support\, they are also uniquely capable of effective change and leadership of mobilizing civic engagement in their home communities and in the world. Yet\, the odds often seem to be stacked against them. What can be done about this? This panel tries to piece together a framework for the role of youth leadership in systemic change. By using three countries—Afghanistan\, Belarus\, Myanmar—as case studies\, the panelists representing these countries will address the challenges and opportunities of the generation that will be leading important changes to achieve the freedom for their countries. \n\n\n\nAn accompanying reception with food and refreshments will follow the panel to give students an opportunity to engage with the panelists. \n\n\n\nPlease RSVP here. \n\n\n\nPanelists \n\n\n\nMANASI SUBRAMANIAM: Editor-in-Chief\, Penguin Random House India (Yale World Fellow 2022) \n\n\n\nMINAMI TSUBOUCHI: Founder\, BEYOND Tomorrow (Yale World Fellow 2022) \n\n\n\nMOHAMMAD “MUSA” MAHMODI (Afghanistan): Human Rights Lawyer (Yale World Fellow 2020) \n\n\n\nANDREI KUREICHIK (Belarus): Playwright\, director\, and civil activist (Yale World Fellow 2022) \n\n\n\nDAVID MOE (Myanmar): Postdoctoral Associate\, Southeast Asian Studies\, Yale University URL:https://dwighthall.org/event/global-migration-and-youth-leadership-in-the-pursuit-of-freedom/ LOCATION:Luce Hall\, Room 101\, 34 Hillhouse Ave\, New Haven\, Connecticut\, 06511\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://dwighthall.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Global-Migration-Youth-Leadership-Panel.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20221203T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20221203T170000 DTSTAMP:20260430T170052 CREATED:20221202T170227Z LAST-MODIFIED:20221202T170229Z UID:41076-1670068800-1670086800@dwighthall.org SUMMARY:Volunteer and Support Voting Rights with the Full Citizens Coalition DESCRIPTION:Register here. \n\n\n\nFull Citizens Coalition is conducting a survey to assess the experience of registered voters who were incarcerated in Connecticut at the time of the most recent election cycle. \n\n\n\nStop in Dwight Hall this Saturday\, 12/3\, help address and stuff envelopes\, and meet other students committed to upholding the rights of all citizens. \n\n\n\nYou can select a time slot when you register.

Inspired by our executive director’s stories about her own journey as a refugee\, the series aims to shed light on refugee experiences and narratives across an array of mediums\, from art to academia and more. \n\n\n\nThe stories of refugee women are those of bravery\, resiliency\, and courage. Having navigated hardships while adjusting to life in a new country\, they offer an essential perspective on what it means to embrace identity and perservere above difficulties. Refugee women are vital leaders\, lawmakers\, entrepreneurs and thinkers in our society. Though their voices oftentimes go unheard\, the Speaker Series aims to highlight those such empowering figures in our communities. \n\n\n\nJoin us as we speak with Miss Arab USA 2022\, Marwa Lahlou and Basma Alawee\, Executive Director of WeaveTales. \n\n\n\nOriginally born in Morocco\, Lahlou moved to the United States at the age of ten. As the only Arab in her high school\, she faced severe discrimination for her background. However\, in connecting directly with her community\, she discovered the beauty in her culture and its inherent unity. Since then\, Lahlou has committed herself to promoting an understanding and acceptance of Arab culture\, taking on several initiatives to that end. One such program led her across several Connecticut schools to share the values of Arab culture. She went on to gain her Bachelor’s Degree in Political Sciences\, graduating Magna Cum Laude\, and received an MBA in International Business Management and Marketing with high honors at the University of New Haven. \n\n\n\nAs a refugee from Iraq\, Basma Alawee has worked towards advocating for refugee voices and rights throughout the world. She aims to unite refugee and immigrant communities in order to expand conversations surrounding their well-being as well as to build collective understanding. To that end\, Alawee founded WeaveTales in 2019 to develop programs to help refugees use the mediums of writing and storytelling to share their lived experiences. Additionally\, she works as the National Campaign Director for We Are All America and National Partnership of New Americans. Alawee’s ultimate goal is to build inclusivity and acceptance in the national narrative surrounding refugees and Muslims.
