Explore St. Martin’s Border Story at USM’s Workshop


July 7, 2025

Whether you’ve lived on the island your whole life or recently made it your home, this workshop is a chance to connect with the past and present of St. Martin in a meaningful way. Join us for an experience that’s not just academic, it’s personal, cultural, and community-driven.
Why is there a border on a small island like Saint. Martin/Sint Maarten?

It’s a question that sparks curiosity, identity, and deeper conversation and USM invites you to explore it at a special two-day workshop this August.
