According to the Henley Passport Index, Japan and Singapore top the list of countries with strong passports on the global ranking. What this means is that; Japanese, British, Americans, Canadians and host of others with strong passports have visa-free access to most countries of the world. For most of African and South Asian countries, reverse is the case, their passports are classified as weak, this has over the years resulted into difficult immigration procedures for people of African and some of Asian origins. What is the rationale for the global classification of passports that created these disparities among countries of the world? Finding answers to these questions is the motivation for my podcast episode, UNEVEN BORDERS. I aim to seek these answers in a most objective manner in this episode.

Through personal immigration experiences of Pooja, an international student from Indian at university of Sussex, I aim to have resourceful discussions on border issues and global passports classification as its affect the right to free movement of certain nationalities of the world.
