IMMIGRATION & INCLUSION: LESSONS FOR THE UK FROM AUSTRALIA
Merton will be welcoming Tim Soutphommasane, the new Chief Diversity Officer at the University of Oxford and Fellow of Balliol College, and Tiphaine Le Corre, a current DPhil student in politics at Nuffield College, University of Oxford, as speakers for the ninth Merton Equality Conversation.
Tim will be speaking on the issues of immigration, equality, and inclusion in liberal democracies, drawing from his rich experience as both a political theorist, previously at the University of Sydney, and as Australia’s Race Discrimination Commissioner from 2013–2018.
Tiphaine’s talk will focus on a discussion of who is considered ‘wanted’ and ‘unwanted’ in the UK context.
