John Dalhuisen, a leading thinker on human rights and migration policy, gets to the heart of Europe's Migration debate.

About this event

John Dalhuisen will explore the refugee/migrant crisis in Europe.

What's the Christian response? A 'closed doors' policy can be controversial. Some believe an open-door policy may be used by the extreme right to sow discord. There's no easy answer.

John’s reflection, formed by his extensive experience, will help you get a clearer picture of a complex issue.

This event is sponsored by the Caritas, Justice and Peace Commission of the Archdiocese of St Andrews & Edinburgh
