The Center for the Middle East and International Law cordially invites you to attend their upcoming virtual conference: Settlers in Syria: Turkish Population Transfers & International Law on Wednesday, April 6, 2022, from 9:30-11:30 AM. 

Turkey’s 2018 incursion into Syria garnered international attention, but what has occurred since hasn’t. Not only does Turkey occupy large swaths of Syrian territory, but it also has resettled thousands of people into areas it occupies and in ways that significantly affect the ethnic demographics of the region. This conference will examine these possible population transfers from the perspective of international law.

Additional information about the event, including the list of speakers, can be found here. This event will be hosted over Zoom. You can register here. For more info, visit us at: cmeil.gmu.edu.
