"GEOPOLITICAL" PROJECT
ESSENTIAL RESEARCH WORK
Pour une Planète sans Frontières has developed the Geopolitical project in order to meet the needs of asylum seekers and its partners in geopolitical research necessary for the constitution of the asylum application file.
Our team :
-
undertakes personalized research on the geopolitical context of the country of origin of asylum seekers. For example, polygamy in Comorian law, the kidnapping of street vendors in Angola
-
analyzes reports the from OFPRA (French Office for the Protection of Refugees and Stateless Persons), searches for press articles in French, English and the language of the asylum seeker's country of origin, reads the case law of the National Court of Asylum (CNDA), consult databases, such as AIDA, EDAL
-
writes up-to-date notes on the situation in the asylum seeker's country of origin
-
provides volunteer interpreters who speak the language of the country of origin of asylum seekers in order to assist them, among other things, in writing their story or in preparing their appeal before the CNDA
QUALIFIED VOLUNTEERS
Our partners are structures that welcome migrants and support them in writing their story without however having the linguistic knowledge or the tools to carry out this research.
Our organization works with volunteers who have studied political science, law or international relations, who have done academic work and who are used to carrying out research and analyzing it. These volunteers are assisted, if the need arises, by volunteer interpreters who speak the language of the asylum seeker.
We make our expertise available to our partners in order to help them in the most efficient way possible.
