Wales Launch of ‘Charter of Rights of Women Seeking Asylum'

9th March 2008
To celebrate International Women’s Day, Welsh Refugee Council has joined forces with Oxfam Cymru and Displaced People in Action to launch the Charter of Rights of Women Seeking Asylum.

The launch takes place at The Senedd in Cardiff Bay on Monday 9th March. Speakers include Dr Brian Gibbons, Minister for Social Justice and Local Government, plus representatives from the charities involved in the event.

The Charter is a framework of principles aimed at persuading the UK Border Agency to take both a strategic approach to the needs of women seeking asylum and to put in place the operational procedures and safeguards that will remove the discriminatory barriers they face. The event aims to not only launch the Charter but also celebrate the support that Wales provides to women seeking asylum.
