Presentation
Join us for a conversation about the use of artificial intelligence at the border and migration management with Petra Molnar, the author of Technological Testing Grounds:Migration Management Experiments and Reflections from the Ground Up.

Technology is increasingly being used at the border. From drones to Big Data to algorithms, countries are turning to novel techniques to ‘manage’ migration. However, often these technological experiments do not consider the profound human rights ramifications and real impacts on human lives.

Petra Molnar will discuss with Prof. Jamie Chai Yun Liew of her new report, Technological Testing Grounds. Based on interviews with refugees and people on the move and highlighting the panopticon of increasing surveillance and automation at the border, this investigation supplements a critical new report on systemic racism, digital technologies, and immigration and border enforcement by the UN Special Rapporteur on Discrimination, Tendayi Achiume.
