THE GROWING GLOBAL MOVEMENT OF WELCOMING

Welcoming is a core American value, but also a global one. Around the world, leaders are rethinking what it means to welcome those seeking safety or new opportunities to the places they call home. While one prevailing narrative may suggest that nations are becoming more insular, our work shows that welcoming is a value shared by many, no matter where in the world we are.
