Q:

What is World Refugee Day?

A:

World Refugee Day is an international day designated by the United Nations to honor refugees around the globe.

It falls each year on June 20 and celebrates the strength and courage of people who have been forced to flee their home country to escape conflict or persecution.


The day is important for raising awareness about the rights and needs of refugees, helping mobilize support for them not just to survive, but

to thrive.

Q:

Who is a refugee?

A:

A refugee is someone who has been forced to flee their homeland to escape conflict, violence, or persecution, unable to return until conditions are safe.


The definition of a refugee originates from the 1951 Refugee Convention, in which a refugee is defined as someone who has a “well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion.“

What’s the difference between refugees and asylum seekers?

Q:

A:

Refugees are people who have been forced to flee their country because of persecution, war, or violence.


Asylum seekers are those undergoing the process of seeking protection in a foreign nation. Once the host country recognizes the asylum claim, asylum seekers are then granted refugee status and can safely reside in the

host country.


What does it mean

to be stateless?

Q:

A:

A person is stateless when no State recognizes this person as a national according to the operation of the State's law. Stateless people often face significant challenges in accessing basic human rights. For example, a stateless person often isn't allowed to go to school, see a doctor, get a job, open a bank account, buy a house or get married.


Does everyone have

the right to seek asylum?

Q:

A:

Yes, the right to seek asylum is recognized as a universal human right.


Article 14 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights states that “Everyone has the right to seek and to enjoy in other countries asylum from persecution.” Other human rights in this declaration include the right to life, the right to privacy, and the right to a fair trial without discrimination.
