“The Israeli Asylum System: Refugee Exclusion in the Land of Refugees”

A talk by Tally Kritzman-Amir, Senior Lecturer, College of Law and Business, Israel

12:00- 1:00 p.m.
WCC 3013

Please join us for a brown bag lunch by Dr. Tally Kritzman-Amir on Israel’s asylum system. Kritzman-Amir will situate the exclusionary policy’s paradoxical relationship to the country’s founding narrative as a state for refugees, discuss the impact of this policy on refugee rights, and analyze the role the courts play within the current asylum regime. Kritzman-Amir is a Senior Lecturer of Immigration and International Law at the College of Law and Business, Israel, and a current Human Rights Program Visiting Fellow.

This event is being co-sponsored by the Harvard Immigration and Refugee Clinic
