Refugees and International Development Policy and Practice
- To understand who is a refugee and the rights to which they are entitled under international law.
- To learn how states in the Global South approached refugees in the 1960s and 1970s as part of national development planning.
- To understand why and how the link between refugees and development programming eroded in the 1980s and 1990s as a result of structural adjustment policies and democratization.
- To learn how the link between refugees and development is now being promoted by key development actors, such as the World Bank, and within the United Nations system.
- To raise critical questions about how this relationship is being framed in contemporary debates and policy discussions.
