    Our world is increasingly in motion. The unprecedented pace, scale, and complexity of movement on our planet—of humans, plants, animals, cultural messages and artefacts, resources, pathogens, and more—present a diverse suite of challenges and opportunities that play out across local, regional, national, and international scales. Only through an interdisciplinary, multi-species, and systems-level perspective can we understand and anticipate the causes and consequences of migrations for people and the planet. As part of the Global Grand Challenge, this class will be built around weekly public talks that will, along with assigned readings, form the basis of our inquiry and discussion over the course of the semester.
