1. Climate change-related displacement and the determination of refugee status under the 1951 Refugee ConventionElijah Sriroshan Sritharan, 2023, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Climate change and climate-driven migration are two of the defining challenges of the twenty-first century, and there is no legal framework for protecting those displaced across national borders for climate-related reasons. The 1951 Refugee Convention hardly applies to human mobility in the context of climate change. This paper was written in the hopes of initiating a discussion concerning an alternative perspective through which persons fleeing natural disasters linked to climate change may satisfy the eligibility conditions for recognition of refugee status. Expanding the definition of refugee as defined in the Convention by including the notion of vulnerability to climate disasters that are caused by the underlying socio-economic conditions in the claimant’s home country and the role of discrimination in causing differential exposure to the climate-related disasters in legal definitions might open the door for the availability of refugee status for persons fleeing in the context of climate change. This paper proposes the adoption of a reformed human rights-based interpretation, particularly with regard to the individual nature of refugee status determination. Recalibrating the Convention to facilitate climate-induced migration could reduce political tension and social unrest in receiving countries.

2. Acceptance of refugees from the Middle East and Ukraine in EU and Slovenia : Bashelor's thesis undergraduate study programme Criminal justice and security, B. A.Amir Hossein Emadi, 2023, diplomsko delo Opis: The most common definition of migration is "the movement of people for various reasons, including war, persecution, violation of human rights, etc., from one country, place, or location to another". This diploma is presenting definitions of migration, defining the types and reasons for migration, and examining the two largest mass immigrations in Europe after World War II. This thesis presents the differences in how refugees are accepted and integrated in EU countries and how these people travel to European countries. This diploma focuses on mass immigration in the EU in particular in the years 2015 and 2022 when millions of people from the Middle East and Ukraine sought refuge in EU countries. Some statements of European government and media regarding refugees from the Middle East and Ukraine are highlighted.
The thesis is highlighting the fundamental and major differences in terms of treatment and acceptance of refugees from Ukraine and Middle Eastern countries by EU countries and identifying the reasons for these differences. The interviews were conducted with refugees from Ukraine and from the Middle East and also with integration counsellor from Government Office for the Support and Integration of Migrants to show how the differences will affect the lives of refugees during the migration process and in the host country, especially in the Republic of Slovenia.Diplomsko delo osvetljuje temeljne in bistvene razlike v obravnavi in sprejemanju beguncev iz Ukrajine in Bližnjega Vzhoda s strani držav Evropske Unije in identificira razloge za te razlike.

3. Exploring student attitudes to the refugee crisis : songs on migrationKirsten Hempkin, 2016, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: The issue of migrants and refugees has occupied Europe for the last few months. Much of the discourse surrounding this issue has been overwhelmingly negative, lapsing at times into stereotype, prejudice and even hate speech. As language teachers at a humanities faculty, we have a responsibility to address this issue in the classroom, especially as classroom experience tells us that our students are prone to stereotypical thinking. The article presents a series of song-based activities intended for use in language development classes for future teachers and translators at the Faculty of Arts, University of Maribor.
