refugee policy  

Definición

  • The United Nations (UN) refugee policy is based on the key legal document, The 1951 Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees, also known as the Refugee Convention. This convention relates to the assistance and protection of refugees who are fleeing “owing to well founded fear of persecution.” However, subsequent attempts to apply the convention highlighted gaps in relation to the needs of specific potential refugees.
