RLI 2nd Annual Conference
This RLI blog on Refugee Law and Forced Migration was launched with a short series of pieces by leading presenters in our upcoming 2nd Annual Conference.
The RLI Annual Conference offers a dedicated annual forum internationally to share and debate the latest research and cutting-edge developments in refugee law. This year’s special theme – ‘Mass Influx? Law, Policy and Large-Scale Movements of Refugees and Migrants’ – reflects a need to re-examine complex issues surrounding large-scale sudden movements of persons across borders, as we build towards the Global Compacts in 2018.
