In alliance with the CHCI-GHI funded by the Mellon Foundation and the SPROUT Project financed by the Ministry of Education (R.O.C., Taiwan), the International Center for Cultural Studies (ICCS), National Chiao Tung University, is organizing a series of webinars on Migration, Logistics, and Unequal Citizens in the Global Context from 2020 to 2021. (https://ghi2020.web.nctu.edu.tw/)

"Borders, Logistics, and Unequal Lives" in the time of COVID-19 is the first webinar to introduce the series of events we plan to initiate in the coming months. The September forum addresses the research lines we need to engage concerning the precarity of migrant lives in the pandemic and the border politics with logistics' operation behind the flow of capital in the 21st century.
