Online seminar with Dr. Cornelia Flora – the Emeritus Distinguished Professor at the Department of Sociology, Iowa State University who will discuss the subject of Community capitals and migration. As violence increases around the world, so does immigration. Communities – even those with a history of population loss – are confronted with new populations and new challenges. Immigration is impacted by and impacts all aspects of communities: ecological, cultural, human, social, political, financial, political and built. In the webinar we will use the community capitals framework to see how these community capitals can be mobilized to welcome immigrants and integrate them into the community as new assets, respecting new cultures that can diversify and enhance the entire community.
This webinar will take place on Monday, 8th February 2016 at 10am CST / 4pm GMT and will be free to IACD members; non-members will be asked for a small donation. To book a place go to: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/iacd-webinar-with-dr-cornelia-flora-tickets-20013864006
