Enhancing African and Asian Migrants' Access to Asylum Systems

African and Asian migrants often seek asylum in various regions due to persecution based on political, religious, or sexual orientation reasons. The asylum process involves appearing before authorities for refugee status determination, conducting individualized interviews, and ensuring non-refoulement. Accelerated procedures address clearly unfounded or abusive applications. Joint work opportunities focus on information exchange, best practices, and support for managing asylum systems through collaboration and cooperation.
