SUMMARY:Unseen and Unsafe: Barriers to Asylum for Refugees with Disabilities (hybrid)
DESCRIPTION:You’re invited to a special presentation by students who participated in the Disability Inclusive Development Initiative (DIDI) project for UNHCR last winter/spring. Several of these students presented findings at the UN to inform policy to better support and protect disabled refugee populations. \nFriday\, February 7\, from 1-2 pm  Hosted by the Disability Studies Program\, this event will provide an in-depth look at the project and its impact on global human rights advocacy. \nThe presentation will be held in person at the D Center\, HUB 327\, and will also be accessible via Zoom:\nZoom Link \nDon’t miss this opportunity to learn about the intersection of disability\, migration\, and human rights from your peers! \nRESEARCH TEAM: Taylor Arredondo\, Stuart Asplund\, Alice Bruil\, Koschei Budkar\, Alexandra Crooks\, Zak Osborn\, Vanessa Pankaj\, and Carlos Yanez Navarro. Research assistant: Kaden Kaeo. Project Advisors: Megan McCloskey\, Johanna Mora\, Mostofa Md. Golam Hasan\, and Rhoda Adeke. \nEXCERPT FROM RESEARCH BRIEF: Although the circumstances in the countries under study are diverse and each face challenges particular to their political\, economic\, and social contexts\, the study finds that none are effectively meeting the needs of refugees with disabilities or fulfilling the promise of international human rights law to the most vulnerable. In short\, to meet the present moment and truly commit to protecting the human rights of all\, governments and humanitarian actors must do more. \n  \n
