Dublin returnees caught between law and harsh reality

09.02.2017 / Today the Danish Refugee Council and the Swiss Refugee Council publish a joint report regarding the situation of persons with special reception needs transferred to Italy under the Dublin III Regulation. The report focuses on reception conditions and access to the asylum procedure.

The SRC country analysis unit is within the Protection Department. Our country experts research independent information on the situation in asylum seekers' and refugees' countries of origin. These country analyses are in the form of reports and consulted as a source of further information in the asylum procedure. They contribute to an efficient and fair asylum procedure for everyone involved.

The significant support and concern for asylum seekers we see on a daily basis strengthens us and gives us the assurance that people seeking protection are welcome in Switzerland. You, too, have generously supported the work of the Swiss Refugee Council. We sincerely thank you for this support.
