​

What is a refugee?

A refugee is a person who has been forced to flee their home country due to a well-founded fear of persecution, war, violence, or other forms of serious harm. This persecution can be based on factors such as race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group. Refugees are often unable or unwilling to return to their home country due to the dangerous and inhospitable conditions there.

​

International protection

Refugees are entitled to international protection under the 1951 United Nations Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees, commonly known as the Refugee Convention. This convention outlines the rights and responsibilities of both refugees and the countries that host them.

​

Asylum seekers

An asylum seeker is a person who has left their home country and is seeking protection as a refugee in another country. They have not yet been officially recognized as a refugee but are in the process of applying for asylum.
