Greetings to all listeners!!
Human
Rights have been the hot topic of the previous decade. It will continue to be a
hot topic as we go ahead. But the main reason Human Rights came into the mainstream discussion was Refugee Crisis. It is not a new concept, but found relevance
in the last decade due to a series of events starting from the Syrian Civil War in
2011, then war against terror in Iraq, Libya, Yemen, parts of Africa etc.
Although the debate of Refugee crisis grabbed global attention only after it
reached Europe.
The first massive
refugee crisis was soon after World War, after the massive destruction it
created throughout Europe. That was when the 1951 Refugee Convention came into effect,
later there was the 1967 Geneva Protocol. Now, we have seen another refugee crisis
in Europe were refugees from the Middle East, Afghanistan, Africa etc came to the doorstep
of Europe knocking the doors of the EU.
Today we are
decoding the events leading to that, how Europe reacted, it's handling, consequences
the present status and the future. Unlike previous podcasts, we will be following
it in the form of Q&A. Most of the people are not so much aware of these
topics. Even if people know about it, they have only partial knowledge of it.
Our aim is not to give you news or events. We analyse them and provide you in
a capsule format so as to enable you to understand the topic.
Compared to
previous episodes, we have tried to include audience thoughts and audience
questions into the podcast. I hope you all will be aware of this topic and will
take back with you the best of what we have shared with you.
