Asylum law conference 2017

Recent world events have seen changes in the asylum landscape in Scotland and the UK. The movement of people seeking refuge due to war or instability has multiplied over the last few years and there has been a corresponding increase in asylum seekers arriving in Scotland.

This event will bring you up to speed with the latest thinking and will also equip you with valuable and specialised knowledge to support your practice. This event is designed for experienced practitioners who advise in the field of asylum law and practitioners with some prior knowledge of the issues affecting asylum practice.

The agenda is still in development and will be available to view shortly
