About this Podcast:
Displacement is reshaping our world – from Ukraine to Venezuela to the streets of American cities. It has gone from a fringe issue to the topic of daily headlines. But there is a ton of misinformation out there, and most people don't know much about its causes – much less its solutions. On Forced from Home, we will talk to the people on the frontlines of global displacement and the global decision makers shaping how the world responds – about everything from life in a war zone to economics to politics. Listen in for smart, practical insights that will help make sense of these issues – and share ways that you can get engaged.
