The state of the world's refugees has become an issue of global importance. Forced migration is affecting vast numbers of people who find themselves victims of exclusion — and who are often denied a place of asylum.

This certificate investigates the conceptual issues (definitions, refugee rights, ethical norms) surrounding refugees and their status. |
