1 Refugee Law: Policy and Procedures Course number Mondays 4:30-7:00 PM Prof. Fernando Chang-Muy Course Description: This course will look explore the origins of the institution of refuge or asylum. The course will touch upon public policy issues such as the beneficiaries of asylum, the State that grants asylum, the international agency or agencies that accord protection, and the myriad of human rights violations that force people to flee and seek asylum. Students will become familiar with both the international refugee law and human rights law context of present-day law and practice with reference to international treaties and customary international law. The United Nations 1951 Convention and 1967 Protocol relating to the Status of Refugees will be the standard against which refugee protection will be measured. Students will also gain knowledge of regional conventions and the connection with international human rights, migration and international cooperation agreements in Europe, Latin America and Africa and Asia. Students will then turn to the statutory and regulatory underpinnings of the United States determination of who is and is not a refuge vis-a-vis the 1980 Refugee Act and implementing regulations. Students will gain an understanding of the nuts and bolts of obtaining asylum in light of prevailing legal definitions and their application in practice. The class will combine theory with practice by going a field trip on a weekend to a detention facility where the government houses asylum seekers. Students will then apply their knowledge of law and procedure and interview detainees, draft an affidavit requesting asylum, and research the asylum seekers claim to human rights abuse. Particular attention will be given to the situation of vulnerable asylum claimants, such as women and children. The course will end by looking at the international institutional response to refugee problems. Students will take into account the legal dimensions, and the responsibilities and realities of the Office of the United National High Commissioner for Refugees, the United States government, the reasons of current and potential population displacements caused by a variety of reasons. Students will also explore the justification

2 and viability of recent national and regional responses to refugee flows, such as, deterrence, detention, restricted employment and welfare entitlements, expedited procedures, and returns to safe countries. Students are expected to familiarize themselves with basic international texts and principles, and to be able to apply them to particular factual circumstances. They are also encouraged to keep up-to-date with the general dimensions of contemporary population movements and with the individual aspects of the search for protection and asylum. Course Objectives: By the end of the course, students should be able to: 1. Understand the international framework for refugee and asylum related issues 2. Understand US Asylum Law and regulations 3. Conduct intake of an asylum seeker and conduct case analysis 4. Research Country Conditions 4. Conduct Follow-up Intake Interview 5. Prepare An Application for Asylum, Form I Prepare Affidavit attesting to the asylum seeker's claim for asylum 7. Prepare a packet with evidence to support the claim for asylum 8. Have familiarity with ancillary issues related to asylum such as issues of employment authorization, detention and public benefits Required: 1. Refugee Law and Policy, Musalo, Moore and Boswell, Carolina Academic Press 2. accounts 3. Training on the use of the World Wide Web and research on the internet 4. UN Handbook on Procedures and Criteria for Determining Refugee Status (download from the Recommended: 6.

Interpreter Releases, available in the Library Course Format: -Discussion and critical analysis of Law & Policy by both students and instructor -Law, regulation and practice discussion facilitated by instructor -Case Law and policy discussion facilitated by students

3 -Films, and other audio visual materials will be used to support course materials General Expectations: Students will complete readings and participate in class discussions concerning the laws, policies and case law regarding the principles of asylum, both from the domestic and international perspectives. Simultaneously, students will apply theory into practice by working in teams to assist asylum seekers who are in detention. Students will help the asylum seeker request a remedy from removal from the US, where the remedy is usually asylum, withholding of removal or relief under the Convention Against Torture. Each student team is expected to work together to interview the asylum seeker, research issues, compile an evidentiary packet, including an affidavit and a brief; prepare for trial; and, possibly, represent a client at a hearing. Clients: Each team will be advocating on behalf of an individual detained by INS at York County Prison. The Pennsylvania Immigrant Resource Center (PIRC) has conducted a preliminary intake on each of the individuals assigned to students. In each case, the relief available to the detainee is either asylum or withholding of removal. Recently, an increasing number of immigrants with mental health issues (MHI) have been detained at York. Since individuals with MHI face great difficulty in understanding their claims and mounting their own defense, PIRC may feel that it is critical that these individuals receive assistance and representation through their immigration proceedings. York County Prison: York County Prison is located about one and a half hours from Philadelphia. Each student planning on entering the prison will need to go through a clearance process. Students will be asked to provide PIRC with their names and social security numbers for this purpose.
