INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE 'On the Borders of Refugee Protection? The Impact of Human Rights Law on Refugee Law - Comparative Practice and Theory'
Convened by the Refugee Law Initiative, University of London, and partner institutions
Hosted by the Institute of Advanced Legal Studies, London
13 and 14 November 2013
This expert conference breaks new ground in exploring how human rights law (HRL) is shaping the protection of refugees worldwide. A high-level event, it brings together exciting new contributions from more than twenty-five leading international specialists in the refugee protection and HRL - including experts from UNHCR - to take stock of transnational developments in law and practice over the past twenty years, and to cultivate new approaches to the topic. Please see the attached programme for further details.
The five thematic panels of the conference move beyond abstract approaches to HRL and refugee law to assessing legal interaction between the two fields in practice. The first day offers wide-ranging comparative perspectives on how HRL is impacting on refugee law in national settings across the world. The second half-day explores the novel ways in which the borders of refugee protection are being shaped by cross-cutting special themes in HRL and the future challenges that this poses. Substantial opportunities are provided for participants to join in debating and forging new approaches to the themes canvassed by this unique gathering.
