DESCRIPTION:Dr. Luna Vives is currently a postdoctoral fellow at the Centre
  for Research on Children and Families\, McGill University. Her work focus
 es on how uneven power relationships between mainstream and racialized pop
 ulations are perpetuated through differential access to public services. D
 r. Vives’ areas of expertise include inter-national migration\, human righ
 ts\, public policy and knowledge trans-lation and transfer. Besides her re
 search\, Dr. Vives has experience teaching college and university-level co
 urses\, and has been involved in a number of grassroots community developm
 ent initiatives in Canada and abroad.\n\nDr. Vives will give an example le
 cture tailored to a typical BSW class (SWRK 221 - Public Social Service in
  Canada with a focus on international migration). She will be speaking abo
 ut “Immigration Policy as a Framework for Social Work Practice”.\n	Internat
 ional migration is the movement of people across national borders for the 
 purpose of resettlement. Immigration policy regu-lates this movement\, and
  at the same time grants and limits access to rights and public services f
 or non-nationals. In this lecture\, Dr. Vives will explore the role of imm
 igration policy as a tool that governments use to respond to the challenge
 s posed by an aging population\; present the main categories of migration 
 in Canada\; and discuss their implications for Social Work practice. By th
 e end of the class\, students will have the tools to engage critically wit
 h this area of public policy.\n\nDate: Thu\, Oct 27 \, 2016\n\nTime: 9:30
