Description

Description

The aim of this module is to provide asylum and reception practitioners with basic knowledge on the key legal provisions relating to international protection in the European Union and the most relevant fundamental rights in the context of access to asylum procedure, namely non-refoulement and the right to asylum.
This module focuses on the two key fundamental rights relevant to access to the asylum procedure and the five pillars of the CEAS. It also presents the key definitions of applicants for and beneficiaries of international protection and the main steps of the asylum process.

 

LEARNING OUTCOMES

  1. Recognise the key fundamental rights relevant to the access to the asylum procedure
  2. Identify the main objectives of the legal instruments of the Common European Asylum System
 
The module is delivered online, enabling self-paced learning. 
The assessment strategy is based on one assessment at the end of the module. Questions are multiple-choice, with some being scenario based, and assess the elements of both learning outcomes.
