The 1951 Refugee Convention: Question & Answers
This book discusses the 1951 Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees, one of the most important international legal instruments for the protection of refugees. It explains the key principles and provisions of the convention, including the definition of a refugee, the rights afforded to refugees, and the obligations of states to protect individuals fleeing persecution. A central principle highlighted in the convention is non-refoulement, which prohibits states from returning refugees to places where their lives or freedom would be threatened. The publication also examines how the convention has shaped international refugee law and humanitarian protection, as well as the challenges faced by countries in implementing its provisions in the context of modern displacement and global migration.
