To mark the launch of the Forced Migration Review special feature on non-signatory states and the international refugee regime, the BEYOND project organized two launch events. The recordings of these events can be watched here.
The BEYOND project has collaborated with Forced Migration Review on a special feature on states non-signatory to the Refugee Convention.
Two postdoctoral positions and one PhD position are available in the project “Protection without Ratification? International Refugee Law beyond States Parties to the 1951 Refugee Convention” (BEYOND).
During this year’s Annual Conference at the University of London’s Refugee Law Initiative, the BEYOND project convenes the panel on "Non-Signatory States and the 1951 Refugee Convention: Snapshots from the Middle East and South Asia”.

Forced Migration Review issue 67 – to be published in June/July 2021 – will include a short feature on Non-signatory states and the international refugee regime.
Deadline for submission of articles: Monday 15th March 2021.
BEYOND’s PI Professor Maja Janmyr has been appointed as a Research Associate at the Refugee Studies Centre (RSC) in the Oxford Department of International Development.
Does the Refugee Convention still have an impact in states that have not signed it? How do these states actually contribute to the development of international refugee law? Maja Janmyr will discover the answers to these and other questions when she kicks off the ERC Starting Grant project entitled BEYOND.
Har Flyktningkonvensjonen likevel innflytelse i stater som ikke har signert den? Hvordan bidrar egentlig disse statene i utviklingen av internasjonal flyktningrett? Dette og mer vil Maja Janmyr finne ut når hun nå drar i gang ERC Starting Grant-prosjektet BEYOND.
- Jeg er veldig glad og svært overrasket, forteller professor Maja Janmyr som i sommer fikk positivt svar på søknaden om ERC Starting Grant. Hun får over 15 millioner kroner fordelt over fem år til å forske på betydningen av FNs flyktningekonvensjon for de stater som ikke har ratifisert den.
