In this talk\, Laura Macdonald examines the causes of migration and the recent caravans\, and the role of the Mexican government. She calls for a regional response\, including from Canada\, to the overlapping environmental\, economic\, and security crises faced by the region. \n  \nBio:  \nLaura Macdonald is a Professor in the Department of Political Science and the Institute of Political Economy at Carleton University. She has published numerous articles in journals and edited collections on such issues as the role of non-governmental organizations in development\, global civil society\, social policies and citizenship struggles in Latin America\, Canadian development assistance\, Canada-Latin American relations and the political impact of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). Her recent work looks at transnational activism in North America around labour rights\, migration\, and human rights in Mexico\, and policies to reduce crime and violence in Mexico City. \n
