White Oak Conference on Refugee Regimes
Thu, April 23rd, 1998
The International Migration Policy Program convened a meeting of experts on humanitarian and refugee affairs at White Oak, Florida, on April 23-26, 1998. The group debated whether the positive and negative innovations of humanitarian response of the 1990s add up to a fundamental change in the nature of international humanitarian response or whether they are temporary deviations from the still-accepted norms represented by the 1951 Refugee Convention and the Geneva Conventions. Read the Framework Paper for the White Oak Conference.
