It was named after Fritzjof Nansen, the Norwegian explorer and delegate to the League of Nations. This passport successfully served hundreds of thousands of refugees as a document of identity for travel until the outbreak of World War II. While the International Refugee Organization (IRO) replaced the defunct Nansen Passport Office from 1930 to 1945, it had no authority to issue identity or travel documents to refugees. The 1951 treaty, Convention of the Status of Refugees, defined the rights of refugees.

The purpose of her mission was to learn about the Uruguayan legislative and institutional framework and policies in the fight against human trafficking, as well as the remaining challenges. In this report, the Special Rapporteur highlights the positive progress made by the Government, such as the enactment of domestic legislation against human trafficking, as well as the establishment of an Inter-institutional Roundtable to address trafficking of women for sexual exploitation, and specialized courts and prosecutors to address the issue of organized crime, including trafficking in persons. Nevertheless, the Special Rapporteur observed a number of challenges that the Government must address in order to effectively combat trafficking in persons and to protect the human rights of trafficked victims. Such challenges include, but are not limited to, the lack of comprehensive data on the trend of trafficking in persons, the weak coordination of anti-trafficking activities, the lack of identification and referral mechanisms for trafficked persons, and the insufficient level of facilities and services specifically designed to provide direct assistance to trafficked persons.

  • May 2019 Dear Parents of 5Th Year Liceo Students, We Would Like To
    May 2019 Dear Parents of 5th Year Liceo Students, We would like to invite you to a meeting regarding the UK trip 2019. This will take place in the Green Room (Havre 2267) on Wednesday 29th May, at 0815. The travel agency responsible person is Mónica Quagliotti, who will be present to answer any questions that you might have. As soon as possible we will be sending the “Travel Commitment Form” which should be completed by both students and parents and returned to school. In the meantime please follow the link to complete the Medical Record: https://forms.gle/TdHhf5r9f9iydDye9 Passports It is important that all passports are up to date. Most students do not require a visa to enter the UK, provided that they are Uruguayans and/or have a passport issued by a country within the European Union. In cases where you are unsure, please contact the British Embassy to confirm. Those students who will be travelling with a Passport of the European Union are also required to take their cédula de identidad to the airport together with the passport. Please note that: all students who travel with a non-Uruguayan passport are required to have a “permiso de menor” also. Passports should have an expiration of at least six months after the return trip date. Phones We will be compiling a list of mobile phones for the students and teachers to take with them, as in previous years this proved to be extremely useful. This list will be distributed to all members of the group. We require that all students have their cellular phones unlocked prior to departing in order to be able to install a new chip bought as soon as they arrive in the UK, which will help to locate them in case we need to.
