On February 6, 2025, the Gerda Henkel Foundation and LERRN hosted an insightful webinar, The Politics and Process of Refugee Leadership: A Comparative Analysis of Factors Conditioning Refugee Leadership in the Global South.
This event brought together research teams to share key findings from an 18-month comparative study on refugee leadership dynamics in South America and East Africa. The study, generously supported by the Gerda Henkel Foundation and facilitated by LERRN at Carleton University, explores the political and structural factors shaping refugee leadership in these regions.
