Susie Han is an MIA candidate at Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA) focusing on humanitarian policy, international conflict resolution, and technology, media, and communication. She is the current research fellow supporting Professor Michael Doyle with Carnegie Council's Model International Mobility Convention (MIMC) providing assistance with research and stakeholder engagement in anticipation for its upcoming revision. Han's particular area of inquiry is the direct and indirect impact of climate-induced disasters on global governance structures vis-a-vis human mobility and forced displacement.
Han came to SIPA after seven years in the workforce, four of which were focused on working with migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers in Central America and the U.S.- Mexico border doing one-on-one client orientation, program design, and later policy- and advocacy-related work with UNHCR.
