Fair Procedures for Refugee Status Determinations

澳大利亚和其他西方国家正在经历寻求难民身份的人数激增。该项目将响应最近参议院法律和宪法事务委员会的呼吁，紧急进行独立审查，以确定哪些程序最能为难民(庇护)申请者带来准确的结果。这项研究将比较澳大利亚、加拿大、英国、美国、德国和法国的程序和标准，并为澳大利亚和国际上具有成本效益和社会凝聚力的程序提出可接受的基准和标准。这项研究的结果是，预计澳大利亚将在执行这一问题的全球解决办法方面发挥领导作用。

Australia, and other Western countries are experiencing an upsurge in the number of persons seeking refugee status. This project will answer the call of a recent Senate Legal and Constitutional Affairs Committee for an urgent independent review to determine which procedures will best achieve accurate outcomes for refugee (asylum) applicants. The study will compare procedures and standards in Australia, Canada, the UK, USA, Germany and France and propose acceptable benchmarks and standards for cost effective and socially cohesive procedures within Australia and internationally. As a result of this research Australia is anticipated to play a leading role in the implementation of global solutions to this issue.
