A Safe Haven? Britain's role in protecting people on the move

by Anna Musgrave; Josephine Liebl; Rachel Maranto

Apr 13, 2016
  • Human Rights and Civil Liberties
  • Humanitarian and Disaster Relief
  • Peace and Conflict

  • DESCRIPTION

Across Europe, people who have fled human rights violations, conflict, violence and hardship are living in inhumane conditions, and thousands have drowned trying to reach the continent. While the UK government has been a leader in providing assistance to countries hosting large numbers of refugees, it has fallen short of its moral responsibility to provide safe routes to protection for people seeking refuge in the UK, and has failed to advocate for an approach that protects the rights of all people on the move. This briefing, published by Oxfam GB in partnership with 12 other agencies, provides an overview of what the UK should do to deliver on its responsibility to respond to global displacement.
