Overview
Yet many nations have failed to live up to their obligations to these refugees, creating a humanitarian emergency and leaving millions of people in legal limbo. The crisis is putting pressure on the world’s governments to collaborate on ways to protect refugees, house them, and integrate them into new communities.
This month America Abroad teams up with NPR Berlin, Zócalo, and Democracy International for a binational discussion on what Europe and the United States should be doing to respond to the crisis. Join NPR’s Jacki Lyden for a frank discussion on what can be done.
