In the Women in Refugee Law special issue of Refugee Survey Quarterly, September 2022, WiRL members pursued the network’s objectives of recentring the study of refugee women by reviewing the state of protection in domestic jurisdictions and internationally, identifying setbacks to adequate protection for women at risk of persecution, and proposing inclusive ways forward.
Reflecting WiRL’s global and interdisciplinary approach, the Special Issue diverged from the traditional academic journal structure by including ‘field reflections’ from activists and advocates with applied experience of improving refugee women’s protection.
