Carr advocates for non-citizens, particularly those who are victims of forced migration. Migration and immigration are among the policy initiatives of the German Marshall Fund (GMF). Carr will spend 23 days in Europe, working with other leaders on forced migration to foster trans-Atlantic cooperation. I am excited about the opportunity to meet with European experts in the field, and learn about immigration and human trafficking issues from their perspective,she said.During my fellowship I plan to lay the foundation for future collaborations.When I return to the Notre Dame community, I hope to incorporate my experience into my teaching, scholarship and advocacy here at the Law School and in the broader community. Now in its 25th year, the Marshall Memorial Fellowship (MMF) was created to introduce new generation of European leaders to America’s institutions, politics and people. In 1999, GMF launched a companion program to expose future U.S. leaders to a changing and expanding Europe. Over the past quarter century, the MMF program has attracted more than 1,500 of the best and brightest from all sectors, including politics, media, business and nongovernmental organizations. Fellows come from across the United States and from 21 European countries. _ Contact: Bridgette Carr, 574-631-7637,_ " bcarr3@nd.edu ":mailto:bcarr3@nd.edu TopicID: 25867 Home Experts ND in the News Subscribe About Us For the Media Contact Office of Public Affairs and Communications Notre Dame News 500 Grace Hall Notre Dame, IN 46556 USA Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Pinterest © 2022 University of Notre Dame Search Mobile App News Events Visit Accessibility Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube LinkedIn
