Pandemic Borders – Examining the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic
Are Canadians changing their attitude on migration due to COVID-19?
Join openDemocracy to examine the challenges that the COVID-19 pandemic raises for vulnerable residents and workers at and within national borders. They’ll also shine a spotlight on resilience and solidarity across those frontiers as well as across boundaries of ethnicity, gender, age and class.

It also aims to showcase examples of resilience and of solidarity across territorial borders and across boundaries of ethnicity, gender, age and class.
