Join UW International Security Colloquium for Research Presentation on How Prolonged Contact Does not Change Perceptions of Immigrants in the Context of Wartime Settings

Posted: 10/23/2022 (Demography News)

On Friday October 28 (3-4:30pm Pacific Time), the UW International Security Colloquium will host Dr. Yang-Yang Zhou’s presentation “Prolonged Contact Does Not Reshape Locals’ Attitudes toward Migrants in Wartime Settings: Experimental Evidence from Afghanistan.” Dr. Zhou’s work is both methodologically and substantively rich, and it should make for a fascinating presentation and discussion.
