The Migrant and Asylum-Seeker Justice project elevates migrant and asylum-seeker personal narratives through plays, the collection of migrant and refugee testimonies, the creation of a border mural, and the installation of a monument commemorating migrants who have lost their lives crossing the U.S.-Mexico border. The program, led by the human rights advocacy organization Coalición de Derechos Humanos, shares the perspectives and experiences of marginalized residents to change policies and practices that violate their human rights.

The Binational Migration Institute is a research unit of UArizona's Department of Mexican American Studies. The Institute's Speaker Series bring scholars working on issues in the U.S.-Mexico border to the UArizona campus for free, public lectures. The lectures provide interdisciplinary academic perspectives on the sociopolitical factors driving migrants and asylum seekers north and help to contextualize their experiences on this journey. Presenters also engage with UArizona graduate and undergraduate students interested in understanding the challenges and expanding their experiences at the U.S.-Mexico border. The Speakers Series complement Colibri's Historias y Recuerdos program and Derechos Humanos's Migrant and Asylum-Seeker Justice Project.
