The Student Association at Trent University Durham (TDSA) will be hosting a panel discussion on Syrian Refugees to present both context to what is happening in Syria and surrounding nations. The panel will address the process of immigrating to Canada, refugees becoming members of the Durham community and finally, a poetic reflection on transitioning into the Canadian identity.
The panel features Trent's expert in this area, Dr Feyzi Baban (Political Studies), Oshawa community leader Derek Giberson, and Canadian poet Akash Bansal. This event will be of interest to faculty, staff, students, and interested community members.
