COMPAS, Oxfam and the RSC brought together an expert group of scholars, NGOs and policy-makers to consider recent and proposed changes to the global refugee regime. The goal of the workshop was to move beyond an exposition of the various propositions to a practically-focused exchange of ideas around current and future policy and actions.
