Almost 60 million people were forcibly displaced at the end of 2014; alarmingly, over half of the world's refugees are children. One in every 122 humans worldwide is now either a refugee, internally displaced, or seeking asylum - if this were a nation's population, it would be the world's 24th most populous. The war in Syria, currently the world's single largest driver of displacement, has forced millions into neighbouring countries and throughout Europe, in the process challenging border security and nations' capacity and willingness to help. What is a refugee, and why are their numbers increasing? What are better-off countries doing to respond to this growing global crisis? What are Australia's human rights obligations to asylum seekers in relation to immigration detention and 'stopping the boats'? This book explores global refugee trends, and discusses Australia's response to the plight of asylum seekers and refugees. In our practically borderless global society, how should Australia play its part in dealing with this unprecedented humanitarian crisis? 410 0$aIssues in society (Balmain, N.S.W.) ;$vVolume 404. 606 $aRefugees$zAustralia 606 $aRefugees$xGovernment policy$zAustralia 606 $aDetention of persons$zAustralia 615 0$aRefugees 615 0$aRefugees$xGovernment policy 615 0$aDetention of persons 676 $a362.870994 702 $aHealey$b Justin 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910798395803321 996 $aThe global refugee crisis$93710819 997 $aUNINA
