  • [Intervention from the Director (DER)
    [Intervention from the Director (DER): • I am pleased to tell you that 2011 is a very special year for refugees, not only in the context of the commemorations of the 1951 Refugee Convention and the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness, but also because it marks the 150th anniversary of the birth of Fridtjof Nansen. • As many of you know, Nansen was not only a renowned scientist and explorer, but in 1921 was appointed the first High Commissioner for Refugees by the League of Nations. He immediately undertook the formidable task of helping repatriate hundreds of thousands of refugees from World War I, assisting them to acquire legal status and attain economic independence. Nansen recognized that one of the main problems refugees faced was their lack of internationally recognized identification papers, which in turn complicated their request for asylum. This Norwegian visionary introduced the so-called "Nansen passport," which was the first legal instrument used for the international protection of refugees. • UNHCR established the Nansen Refugee Award in his honour in 1954. It is given to a person or group who has demonstrated outstanding service for and commitment to the cause of refugees. • Following the tradition started last year to combine the Nansen Refugee Award ceremony with the High Commissioner’s welcoming reception on the occasion of the opening of the Executive Committee meeting, I am pleased to announce that they will be held on Monday, 3 October, at the Bâtiment des Forces Motrices in Geneva. • This year, the award ceremony will be broadcasted in a number of countries around the world for the first time.

Dean Keeton St. Austin, TX 78705 https://law.utexas.edu/humanrights/ https://law.utexas.edu/humanrights/project-type/working-paper-series/ 1 ABSTRACT How do international structure and African agency constrain or propel the search for truly “durable solutions” to the African refugee situation? This is the central question that I seek to answer in this paper. I would argue that existing approaches to resolving refugee issues in Africa are problematic, and key to addressing this dilemma is a clear and keen understanding and apprehension of the phenomenon as grounded in history, states’ self-interested actions, international politics, and humanitarian practice.

  • Operation Bird”
    CHAPTER 16 “OPERATION BIRD” Introduction 16.1 In volume A of the application (chapter 16.7) reference is made to what is described as new and potentially important information obtained by Forensic Investigative Associates (“FIA”), a firm of private investigators, during enquiries conducted under the codename “Operation Bird.” The enquiries were instructed on behalf of the applicant by Eversheds solicitors and most were carried out post-trial but prior to the conclusion of the appeal hearing. None of the information obtained as a result of the Operation Bird enquiries was led at trial or appeal. The applicant’s submissions 16.2 According to volume A information was obtained by Operation Bird which suggested: • that in March 1988 Abo Talb (“Talb”), Mohamed Al Mougrabi, the incriminee Abu Nada of the Miska Bakery and an unnamed Iranian were present at a meeting in Malta arranged by the Iranian secret service to plan an operation against the US; • that the leader of the PFLP-GC Ahmed Jibril (“Jibril”) was in control of terrorist cells in Malta, Germany and London; • that Talb met with a member of the PFLP-GC, Haj Hafez Kassem Dalkamoni (“Dalkamoni”), in Malta in October 1988; • that Talb returned to Malta at the end of November 1988; and • that PFLP-GC operatives purchased the items from Mary’s House which were established to have been inside the primary suitcase. 16.3 Reference is made in volume A to four reports dated 3, 9, 20 and 31 December 2001 which set out some of the results of the Operation Bird investigations.
