Professor Dawn Chatty speaks at the University of Hamburg on the Syrian humanitarian disaster

On April 28^th, Emeritus Professor Dawn Chatty gave a lecture on ‘The Syrian Humanitarian Disaster: Sustainability of Containment in the Conflict Region’ as part of the Political Science Lecture Series at the University of Hamburg. Forming part of the summer term’s series of lectures on ‘The European Crisis in Global Perspective: Local Changes and Global Developments’, Professor Chatty’s presentation focused on her research in the Syrian region, and in particular on the viability of the policy of containment which Europe has attempted to impose upon refugees from Syria, despite the ever-growing burden of immobility, impoverishment and active conflict in the region.
