This series will include discussions and analyses of migration across the Americas, including the USA/Mexico Border, the border of Venezuela with neighboring countries, as well as other major migration routes in the Hemisphere.

Dr. Scott Morgenstern (Professor, Department of Political Science, University of Pittsburgh) will moderate a discussion with special guest and presenter, Federico Ríos, an award-winning photojournalist who has published numerous works on Latin America, armed conflict, the environment and its relationship with society. His work has appeared frequently in The New York Times, National Geographic, and other media. Mr. Ríos will specifically talk about his experience in the Darién Gap - an area around the border between Panama and Colombia considered one of the world’s most dangerous migration routes.
