This podcast explores Australia’s efforts to deter refugees who arrive on its shores by boat, by providing a temporary protection status with no right of family reunification or eventual permanent residence.
Dr. Maria O’Sullivan is an expert, not only on Australian asylum law, but on the cessation of refugee status in international refugee law. We discuss the Australian model of temporary protection as well as the international norms when it comes withdrawing refugee status when the need for protection is no longer there (cessation).
