Show Notes

On January 24, USIP and El Faro English held a conversation on the marginalization and displacement of the Garifuna population in Honduras. The discussion examined how discrimination, climate change, and conflicts over land rights help drive migration to the United States and explored policy options that can help protect human rights and curb migration.
