In 2012, Katie Durvin worked as a program assistant for the World University Service of Canada (WUSC) in the Dzaleka refugee camp in Malawi. She conducted pre-departure training for refugee youths who were sponsored to emigrate to Canada to pursue post-secondary education and gain permanent residency in Canada.
Now pursing her MA in International Affairs at Carleton, Durvin is one of several FPA graduate students who are a crucial part of the study of human migration and diaspora issues at Carleton University.
