Intersectionality in Refugee Policy & Advocacy
Earlier this year CPJ launched our report “The Most Vulnerable” which examines how different stakeholders can apply an intersectional approach to their respective areas of policymaking and advocacy efforts. This event brings together experts from both areas to discuss best practices, and provide recommendations for improving intersectionality within movements aimed at upholding the rights of refugees.
