Prof. Meili Presents Findings at Oxford's Refugee Studies Centre

Professor Stephen Meili presented his research comparing the impact of human rights treaties on jurisprudence and practice in the United Kingdom and Canada at the University of Oxford Refugee Studies Centre (RSC). The presentation was part of the RSC's Work in Progress Seminar Series. Meili's research, which is supported by grants from the National Science Foundation and the Robina Foundation, demonstrates that while human rights treaties have been increasingly helpful to asylum-seekers in the United Kingdom over the past decade, they have had much less positive impact on asylum claimants in Canada during the same period.
