A huge honour to contribute to the @collegeofeur KU Leuven conference on the #protection of #humanrights at #European level speaking abt #rule39 measures and #timelimits before European Courts in #asylum cases on behalf of The AIRE Centre
We are very proud at The AIRE Centre to co sign this letter and support this initiative. Questions must be asked & investigations into the incidents should not stop until #deathsatsea stop to occur. The legal obligation to rescue is absolute and it’s time States start respecting it.
An absolute honour speaking about our work The AIRE Centre to the #Refugee and #Migration Studies summer school organised by the University of Athens and Harvard University. Brilliant group of people, looking forward to round 2 today!
❗️ Exactly one year ago ECHR CEDH condemned 🇬🇷 for breaching the right to life & failing to investigate the #Farmakonisi shipwreck (Safi v. Greece).
❗️This was the 🇬🇷 response to Council of Europe only a few days before #Pylos shipwreck
#Thread new issue of the Greek Asylum Case Law Report
1/7 The Greek Asylum Case Law Report is a joint initiative of the GreekCouncilRefugees, HIASGreece and Refugee Support Aegean (RSA), selected from our casework.
🆘 22 people, including 7 women, 6 children and elderly people, are stranded on an islet near #Didymoticho , #Evros #Greece .
The people told us they have no water left and are desperate. We informed Ελληνική Αστυνομία and urge them to respect their right to apply for asylum!
Victims of the #Pylos shipwreck deserve accountability & justice. Not a fake investigation by the same authorities that covered up their role in the disaster. I urge the EU Commission & Greece to heed LIBE Committee Press Committee's call for an independent international investigation.
