Note: This event will take place on 9/1 at 4:00 PM SGT (Singapore time).

The “Citizens and the City” webinar series seeks to provide a platform for exchange between urban activists, academics, and citizens who share an interest in how people can get involved in cities. The first webinar of this series deals with one of the most pressing realms of action: unacceptable living and working conditions of migrant workers, which have received sudden attention in different cities around the world during the coronavirus outbreak. The questions and challenges that aid organizations deal with in their ongoing work on migration go beyond the dormitories and include inclusion projects and gendered experiences of the pandemic.

In this installment, speakers Cai Yinzhou, Shailey Hingorani, and Rieya Piscano will talk about their NGO work in relation to migration and COVID-19 in Singapore and Manila.
