- **Event Description**: Join us for an engaging roundtable discussion on the critical role of religion in shaping migration experiences across Latin AmericaAbout this EventJoin us for an engaging roundtable discussion on the critical role of religion in shaping migration experiences across Latin America and its diasporas. While often overlooked in migration studies, faith communities, religious institutions, and spiritual practices profoundly influence the lives of migrants and the communities that receive, support, and accompany them.Bringing together scholars and practitioners, this conversation will examine the intersections of migration, religion, gender, sexualities, race, ethnicity, human rights, advocacy, and belonging. Drawing on perspectives from the Andean region, Latin America as a region of origin, transit, and destination, and Latinx diasporas in the United States and Europe, panelists will explore how religious actors respond to the challenges and opportunities created by unprecedented levels of human mobility and displacement.We invite students, faculty, researchers, practitioners, and community members to join us for this timely discussion on the social, cultural, and political dimensions of migration in the Americas and beyond.PANELISTS:Hilary Chester is Vice President of International and Domestic Programs at Jesuit Refugee Service/USA (JRS/USA)Maria Luisa Veisaga, Ph.D., teaches in the Center for Women and Gender Studies and the Department of Religious Studies at Florida International UniversityErnesto Fiocchetto, Ph.D., is Affiliated Faculty at the Latin American and Caribbean Center (LACC) at Florida International University, where he works across the Departments of International Relations and Religious StudiesJeison Oviedo is a fourth-year Ph.D. student in Global and Sociocultural Studies at Florida International UniversityShould you need an ADA accommodation to participate in a University event, program, or activity or need to request materials in an accessible format, please contact FIU’s Office of Civil Rights Compliance and Accessibility (CRCA) at 305348-2785 or accommodations@fiu.edu.
