Module 5: Asylum & Humanitarian Protection
Some of the most consequential immigration cases are claims for protection by people who fear serious harm if returned home. This module covers the legal definition of a refugee, the standard of proof, the connection that must exist between the harm and a protected ground, how asylum is sought and the bars to it, the related but different protections of withholding of removal and the Convention Against Torture, and the other humanitarian programmes. Every section below is pre-written and deterministic; nothing is AI-generated.
