Event Durham

In this online, one-hour mini-course, Durham University migration scholars Dr Lauren Martin and Dr Léonie Newhouse unpack key terms like ‘refugee’, ‘asylum-seeker’, and ‘migrant’, analyse the lasting impact of the 1951 Geneva Convention on the Status of Refugees and the 1967 Protocol, as well as a range of other treaties and agreements that impact the status of refugees and the borders that they cross. The workshop will be of value to anyone wanting to gain background knowledge of Asylum, migration and related human rights.

The course can be taken and is available to book throughout the year, renewing each academic year in August.
