London, United Kingdom Mar 2, 2023 (Issuewire.com) - On 17th December 2022, the Latin American community in London came together to celebrate the United Nations International Migrants Day at Guildhall.

The highlight of the event was the keynote address by Professor Chris Imafidon, a world record holder and renowned expert in education. Professor Imafidon addressed the audience on the topic of the migrant heritage of King Charles III and Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, highlighting the significant contributions that migrants have made to the UK throughout history.
