[EU, Africa, Middle East] Refugee Legal Aid - Training films on Refugee Status Determination




11/2012. Earlier this year, Shari Robertson and Michael Camerini, who produced the films, ‘Well Founded Fear of Persecution,’ have given permission for two of their films to be shared on www.refugeelegalaidinformation.org: Well-Founded Fear and Practicing Refugee Law. These two films provide excellent training and we strongly recommend that they be used to train legal aid providers, interpreters, and judges as well as for raising awareness of the plight of asylum seekers.


We ask anyone not from an NGO in the South or lacking the funding to do so, should go to their web site http://www.epidavros.org/ss/products and purchase the films. As they put it: ‘Yes, we are still selling all three on our web site, but we'd love to help. Is there some way for you to filter for decidedly first world down loaders? Would hate to see too many American Universities downloading for free - they can afford a little support for filmmakers! By the way, our post Well-Founded Fear project, an endless one, is here: Twelve Stories: How Democracy Works Now | Home.’
