About the Event
In the past decade, the global refugee population has more than doubled, with countries in both Asia and Europe experiencing an influx of refugees and migrants. From the 2015 refugee crisis in Europe, to the Rohingya crisis in Myanmar and surrounding states, the social welfare of refugees, protection of their basic human rights and efficient support to asylum-seekers have been some of the crucial challenges states have faced.
