Via RSD Watch: The American University in Cairo’s Forced Migration and Refugee Studies Program (FMRS) published a report on the intense protests of Sudanese refugees in Egypt that ended in December with the death of at least 28 people. The protests involved several thousand Sudanese frustrated by the suspension of refugee status determination and resettlement at UNHCR’s Cairo office. The forum update includes two commentaries that seek to find lessons for future refugee policy from the tragic events in Egypt, along with excerpts of the FMRS report.
