Description
This course considers the legal obligations of States and international organisations to assist and protect forced migrants. While the focus of the course is on international law responses to issues of forced migration, consideration will also be given to the relationship between the international legal regime and domestic law. In particular, this course will provide an opportunity to discuss current issues in forced migration regulation in Australia.
This course relates to and extends learning from other courses in the Law School, including Public International Law, International Humanitarian Law, Asia Pacific Migrant/Refugee Rights Intern Program, Australian Immigration Law and Practice, International Human Rights Law and Advocacy, Public Interest Internship Program, and the Social Justice Intern Program.
