Changing The Table podcast – Episode 3
In this episode, we look into how the political participation of migrants varies across different European countries, with a special focus on Ireland as a unique case study. How does Ireland’s approach to political participation differ, and what lessons can be learned from its successes and shortcomings?
Seden Anlar, host and producer of the podcast, is joined by Dr Salome Mbugua, CEO of AkidwA, an organisation of migrant women in Ireland, and by Dr Basak Yavcan, Head of Research of the Migration Policy Group. Who is working on a comparative index of national policies that encourage the civic and political participation of migrants.
