Human rights experts are set to debate refugee protection at a student-led human rights conference in Aberdeen next month.

Lawyers Without Borders Student Division at Aberdeen University will hold its Human Rights Conference 2019 on March 11, examining the question: “Are refugees afforded sufficient protection under human rights law?”

Taking place in Elphinstone Hall, the fifth annual conference will feature a panel consisting of four expert speakers who will in the first session present their research on the topic.

Speakers will include Dr John R. Campbell of the School of Oriental and African Studies and Dr Caroline Nalule, a postdoctoral fellow at Oxford University’s Refugee Studies Centre, with further speakers to be announced in due course.

The panel discussion will be followed by an hour-long Q&A session moderated by a faculty member from Aberdeen Law School.

Refreshments will be provided from 18:00 and ticket entry is free.
