Jesuit Refugee Services UK (JRS UK) and the Scholl of Oriental and Africal Studies (SOAS) will launch a major new report: Disabled by Design: The Human Impact of the Hostile Environment on People Seeking Asylum, at an online webinar on Thursday 14 May at 6pm.
The report presents new research exploring how the UK’s Hostile Environment not only excludes people seeking asylum, but actively creates and deepens disability.
The launch webinar will bring together the report’s authors and expert contributors to discuss the findings, their implications, and the urgent need for change. Speakers will include:
Dr Nicolette Busuttil (SOAS University of London), report co-author
Dr Sophie Cartwright (Jesuit Refugee Service UK), report co-author
Dr Rebecca Yeo (University of Exeter)
Dr Clara Della Croce (Reader in Law and Director of Clinical Legal Education at SOAS University of London), who will chair the discussion
The event is co-hosted by the Centre for Human Rights Law at SOAS and Jesuit Refugee Service UK.
