Refugee Rights are Human Rights! Afghan Refugees in Pakistan

What is the state of refugee rights in Pakistan? What role do civil society groups play to support refugees and advocate for their rights? What are the key challenges? On the 2nd of September PRIO hosted a discussion co-organised by DEGLOBAL and supported by the BEYOND project.


This discussion forum brought together human rights activists and academics from Pakistan and the academics at the University of Oslo, PRIO, and University of Tromsø to exchange views on the state of refugee rights in Pakistan and the role of civil society groups in advocating and supporting refugees. The focus was on Afghan refugees.


Speakers


The discussion was moderated by Professor Marta Bivand Erdal at PRIO. Dr. Arjumand Bano Kazmi at UiO offered introductory remarks (not included in the recording).
