Can artificial intelligence be used for social good? Does technology help or hinder access to health care? How is technology influencing job outcomes for migrant workers?
Earlier in May, Toronto Metropolitan University brought together international researchers and leaders in business and government to discuss many such questions about how rapid technological transformation is reshaping the future of migration in Canada and around the world.
A collaboration between Bridging Divides and the Canada Excellence Research Chair (CERC) in Migration and Integration program, the Migration Disrupted conference included two days of panel discussions, fireside chats and group reflections on the costs and benefits of technological advancement for migrants in Canada.
