UQ to host Forced Migration and the Law conference

Around 170 young Australians will spend a day learning about the complex issues surrounding humanitarian law (the law of armed conflict), forced migration and seeking asylum at a conference hosted by UQ's TC Beirne School of Law on Friday 13 April. Entitled 'Boats, Camps and Barbed Wire Fences - Forced Migration and the Law', the conference has been organised by UQ's Asylum and Refugee Law Project (ARLP), winners of the 2011 Vice-Chancellor's Equity and Diversity Award in the lead-up to the University's annual Diversity Week events.
