Benefits of legal aid during UNHCR procedures / 09 March 2009
In November 2008, UNHCR's Division of International Protection Services invited HCA to make a presentation on "the benefits of legal aid during the UNHCR refugee status determination procedure." The presentation took place during a training in Istanbul for UNHCR staff from Turkey, Russia, Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan and a range of Central Asian countries. Attached is HCA's summary of the benefits of legal aid to refugees, UNHCR staff and the status determination procedure as a whole.
