The Refugee Studies Initiative at Stockton University promotes cross-disciplinary research on displacement and refugees through scholarships and events that facilitate discussions among faculty members, graduate and undergraduate students from across campus.

Education and Border Abolition Conference

This conference emerges from a basic premise:

The creation, maintenance, and abolition of borders are deeply educational projects. Border regimes are a key feature of schooling processes and educational policy globally. Borders seek to define and control which educational lives count and how. And yet, people still study against borders. They learn ways of subverting them. They build unbordered schools. They think, imagine, and practice toward a world without borders. We welcome you to join organizers, researchers, and educators of all kinds in exploring the role of education in border abolition!

  • Save the date: Friday, april 24th
