The Sarah van Walsum Lecture serves as the annual opening of the Master's programme in International Migration and Refugee Law and commemorates our late colleague Sarah van Walsum. The lecture is always given by someone who knew Sarah and covers a topic that she would have found fascinating. Last year's lecture by Juan M. Amaya-Castro was much appreciated and well attended. You can see his lecture again here.
We hope to see you there!
