Assessing asylum claims in Africa: missing or meeting standards?
Listed in ZivaHub and Deakin Research Online and DMU Figshare — shown once because both records carry DOI 10.25446/oxford.33353661.v1
This article reviews the process by which asylum applications are decided in Africa and seeks to relate these proceedings to established due process guarantees.
Description
Focus is placed on the adjudication of refugee claims in general, and those in Africa in particular, because literature in this area has failed to give sufficient consideration to this subject. Using Kenya and Egypt as case studies, it is argued that the procedures used by UNHCR - the principal international authority responsible for the protection of asylum seekers and refugees - to determine refugee claims fall short of international standards in many ways.
