Deeply Talks:

Italy, the E.U. & Fast-Track Asylum

Could an E.U.-supported fast-track asylum system in Italy help stop deaths in the Central Mediterranean? As part of our new Deeply Talks series, Refugees Deeply hosts two experts with in-depth knowledge of the E.U.-Turkey deal about its lessons for Italy.

Join us for a 30-minute conversation with Maria Stavropoulou, director of the Greek Asylum Service since 2012, and Gerald Knaus, founding director of the European Stability Initiative. (Read more about ESI’s Rome plan here as well as a critical reply here.) The discussion will be hosted by Charlotte Alfred, Refugees Deeply’s managing editor.

RSVP below and we will email you instructions on how to dial in on Friday, August 25. If you'd like to ask our editors or guest a question, email it to our community editor Kim Bode (kim@newsdeeply.com) or tweet us @RefugeesDeeply.
