Mixed Migration Expert Roundtables: 10-Point Plan Expert Roundtable No.1: Controlling Borders while Ensuring Protection (Geneva, Switzerland, 20-21 November 2008)

A first expert roundtable on UNHCR's 10-Point Plan of Action took place in Geneva on 20-21 November, 2008 with funding from the European Commission. Entitled "Controlling Borders while Ensuring Protection" and convened by UNHCR and the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies, the roundtable was the first in a series of four thematic meetings on the refugee agency's plan to address refugee protection and mixed migration. Around 40 experts from governments, international governmental and non-governmental organizations, academia and UNHCR explored practical ways on how to operationalize refugee and human rights protection in the context of border and entry management. Emphasis was given to the challenges for the entry system related to the phenomenon of mixed migratory movements.
