CSEL in Fahamu Refugee Legal Aid Newsletter

The May edition of the Fahamu Refugee Legal Aid Newsletter has just been published, and features an article by Clare Cochrane and Jane Herlihy on how understanding psychology canhelp make asylum decisions fairer. The article is an introduction not only to CSEL’s key research in this area, but also to psycho-legal issues more generally, and while CSEL’s work addresses the UK asylum system, the article raises wider issues that apply to asylum and sanctuary-seeking anywhere. 

The Fahamu Refugee Legal Aid Network is part of Fahamu, an organisation that supports social justice networks across Africa and internationally. The newsletter is read by legal practitioners and others working on refugee and asylum issues around the world, with a particular focus on sharing knowledge and experience among practitioners who don’t have easy access to academic institutions or professional networks.
