Convention and Protocol: Relating to the Status of Refugees
The 1951 Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees and its 1967 Protocol are the cornerstone of international refugee protection. They define who qualifies as a refugee, outline the rights of individuals seeking asylum, and set the legal obligations of states toward them. Key provisions include the principle of non-refoulement, ensuring that no refugee is returned to a country where they face persecution. Together, the Convention and Protocol form the foundation for contemporary international refugee law and continue to guide global responses to displacement.
