Group 3 - The Issue of Asylum Seekers in Australia by Kym Wilton https://padlet.com/kym_wilton/Group3IssueAsylumSeekers Jacob B, Andrew, Ryan en-us 2016-11-01 05:24:19 UTC 2016-11-09 03:05:24 UTC hello@padlet.com During 1951 the United Nations refugee agency created the refugee convention which is referred to as the legal document that forms the basis of our work/ workforce, the said document was signed by 144 various state parties and defines the term ‘Refugee’ and begins to outline the rights to these displaced people from these particular states and also informs about their legal obligations of these states to be used to protect them.   The core principle behind this is non-refoulement (the practice of not forcing refugees or asylum seekers to return to a country in which they are liable to be subjected to persecution.)  Which declares that a refugee cannot be returned to their country on the premises that they could face serious threats to their life or freedom in which is now considered a rule of customary international laws throughout the world.   to ensure this Law isn’t being violated by such people, the UNHCR serves as the ‘guardian’ of the 1951 document along with its 1967 protocol in reaction and according to the legislation, states are expected to collaborate with us to ensure that the rights of refugees alike are respected and furthermore protected from refoulement.   Because of these laws being in place it indeed makes it more troubling to revise the whole refugee problem in Australia as the amount of refugees that have attempted to make it to Australia has been excessively growing since even before 1999 but as I found the levels began to boom even more in the next few years.   As the numbers of asylum seekers present throughout Australia begins to grow largely it’s not too long before problems start arising like anything between boats that are traveling here having severe mechanical problems to overpopulation throughout the many holding areas or detention centres present through Australia jacob_baker2 https://padlet.com/kym_wilton/Group3IssueAsylumSeekers/wish/136287328 2016-11-09 02:51:18 UTC https://padlet.com/kym_wilton/Group3IssueAsylumSeekers/wish/136287328 https://padlet.com/kym_wilton/Group3IssueAsylumSeekers/wish/136288474 Andrew
In 2006 the UNHCR launched a 10 point plan of action for refugee protection and mixed migration to help states understand the mixed migration movements in a sensitive way. The plan has main areas that they protect, mostly around the Mediterranean basin, the Gulf of Aden, Central America and the Caribbean, South East Asia and the Balkans.

 

The Ten point plan is aiming to improve cooperation with governments for refugee protection and migration internationally, strengthen relationships between organizations within their regions and a wide connection with civil society organizations with expertise specialized to their benefit.

 

Governments within the UHNCR’s have a very good amount of cooperation and try their hardest within their limits to help the situation with refugees to make it easier for every country effected by the situation.
