Dr. Carol Wallace, UMD Assistant Professor of Spanish Studies, participated in a delegation to Honduras through the Witness for Peace Solidarity Collective in August of 2024. She will discuss the experience that focused on the reasons for the migration of Hondurans out of the country, including forced displacement related to extractive industries, militarization, and climate change. She will emphasize the human face of migration and the role of U.S. policies in perpetuating many of these issues. This talk will be in the 4th Floor Rotunda.
