African refugees and the law
1978 (English)Conference proceedings (editor) (Other academic)
Abstract [en]
In 1966 the institute held an international conference on refugee problems in Africa [...] We have since then followed the refugee questions at the institute and were very encouraged by the initiative by the All Africa Conference of Churches to call a major consultation on these problems in 1977. The institute participated in the preparatory meeting in early 1977 and decided to hold a preparatory meeting for the consultation on legal aspects of the refugee problem. This conference was held at Uppsala in October 1977 and the proceedings are presented in this volume. [From the preface.]
