Welcome to Amnesty’s course on The Rights of Refugees!
In this course, you will have the opportunity to gain the knowledge necessary to claim and defend refugee rights, and you will gain the skills and confidence to undertake actions to protect the rights of people in need of international protection.
In this course, you will be challenged to think critically and devise effective actions to defend and promote human rights. You will be able to apply the human rights of refugees to real-life situations and learn how to challenge misconceptions, prejudices, and discriminatory attitudes towards people having to flee their country.
