Through these efforts, it helps shape strategic decisions for businesses and governments and advances the development of sustainable immigration systems. Rogal’s appointment builds on recent initiatives and positions the Center to advance projects aimed at strengthening international collaboration on digital identity and other migration priorities.
“I’m honored to join the Center and contribute to its work by turning complex migration issues into real-world impact,” Rogal said. “By leveraging data and strategic collaboration, we can support governments and organizations in meeting the evolving demands of global mobility.”
“Leah’s appointment marks an important step in the Center’s growth and impact,” said Bo Cooper, Partner and Executive Director of Fragomen’s Center for Strategy and Applied Insights. “Her deep experience shaping immigration policy and working across government will strengthen our ability to generate data-driven insights, build collaborative strategies and help governments and organizations design smarter, more equitable immigration systems for the future of global mobility.”
