"New and Emerging Migrations"

Between June 23 and June 27, 2008 the Center for European Studies held its annual summer K-12 teacher workshop. This year's workshop- run in collaboration with the UW's Global Studies program - had the title of, "New and Emerging Migrations" and provided a timely discussion of a wide variety of issues surrounding migration in Europe and placed these issues in a broader, global context. Fourteen teachers from Wisconsin and one from Illinois attended five days of informative and thought provoking presentations, panel discussions, film showings and UW-Madison campus resource site visits.
