SUMMARY:Public Lecture: The Well in Welcome
DESCRIPTION:
Overview




This lecture examines the worldwide
Refugees Welcome movement in the context
of creating a flourishing, inclusive society
founded on principles of well-being. Using
poetry, image and music, this lecture will
consider how wellness is made within the
precarious contexts of flight, the fraught
spaces of arrival and integration, and in the
philosophies of societies.
 
The lecture is presented jointly by the Centre for Global Migrations, University of Otago, and Victoria University of Wellington. 
Speaker – Professor Alison Phipps, University of Glasgow
Professor Alison Phipps is the UNESCO
Chair in Refugee Integration through
Languages and the Arts at the University
of Glasgow, Scotland. She is the
University of Otago's 2019 De Carle
Distinguished Lecturer.
