Refugees in Europe: Human Rights, Global Health, and International Law Perspectives

3 Credits.

This course, taught in Madrid, will examine the experiences of refugees and asylum seekers in Europe today, focusing on such questions as: what legal, health-related, and economic challenges do forced migrants face after arriving in Europe? What must they do to persuade host governments to grant them protection? And what roles do race, ethnicity, and religion play in their likelihood of being granted asylum?
